Hacking Exposed

Here is another good one for you guys. I just went out and got the latest edition of Hacking Exposed/Network Security Secrets & Solutions by Foundstone ISBN# 0-07-219381-6.

It's a realy good read so far. It also comes with a CD packed full of tools. I like the way the book is set up. It sets up a scenario then shows how to hack or exploit it. Then it gives a solution to secure or harden it. The book is most definitely not for the noob though.

Like I said though. The tools on the CD are a nice collection. It has one hel% of a password d/b on it. As well it has tools for win32 and *nix plaforms. If you want a good reference guide for IT security and to show the corperate types a thing or two. This is the book. :thumbsup:

hehe now only if i had money left on paypal i could get a copy :P

hmmmm maybe someone scanned the pages and turned it into a text file warez... they do have channels for that on dalnet from what ive seen... maybe ill take a look and if i find it ill past it up here for you people who arent anti-warez.

+greens for you

Its a great book, I got it for Xmas, found it deep in the computers section at Easons, I reckon some other dude had it stored away but I got it. ;)

Anyway if your poor and like freebie books or dont have generous parents { prob cos your old} then pop round to http://blacksun.box.sk for all your free book needs!

;)

I agree its a great book, I have read through whole the book once and are today using it as reference material since my mind seems to forgett things now and then :).

Thanks for the link Ennis, they had a quite big tutorials area and I'll see what kind of information I can dig out from there. Seems like I cant get enough of tutorials they are almost as fun as config files in *nix :D.

its good i bought it since i had the 1st version =p

Just got it and am reading it now,
So far it is very good. But it will take a little while to get through. Looks like everything in it is worthwile though.

Thanks to Ennis. I am very poor and trying to save my$$$ to read book. I read some of them. It will take a while to get through.

I have read the third edition. It is a very good book both for the novie as well as the security professional. It is definately worth the time reading and I would recommend it to anyone looking to find out where their box is vulnerable.

:D

I have the third edition as well.... Good Book.... :thumbsup:
