Synopsis

Is your IT system truly secure? There’s only one way to find out: learn to think like a hacker and test it yourself! You’ll start by learning how to find vulnerabilities through techniques like footprinting, scanning, enumeration, and fuzzing. Then you’ll learn to exploit them—and importantly, how to protect against exploits—whether you’re dealing with brute force attacks, cross-site scripting (XSS), SQL injection, social engineering, or any of the other threats out there. With integrated QR codes that connect you to video tutorials and hands-on exercises, this comprehensive guide will have you hacking in no time.

• Get a deep dive into ethical hacking and professional pentesting
• Learn key techniques, including reconnaissance, scanning, enumeration, cryptography, and password cracking
• Create a hacking lab to simulate real threat scenarios and put your learning into practice

The Hacking Lifecycle
From reconnaissance and scanning to exploitation, privilege escalation, and report writing, walk through the phases of a professional pen test. Understand the ethical and legal foundations of white hat hacking and pentesting.

Models, Frameworks, and Standards
Get a thorough grounding in information security models and frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK and zero trust. Learn about professional pentesting standards like PTES, NIST, OWASP, and more.

Hacking Challenges
Test your skills with real-world scenarios! Gather intelligence through open-source research, exploit vulnerabilities such as XSS and SQL injection, perform password cracking and cryptographic analysis, and understand social engineering, malware, and covert communication.
