Information security experts worldwide use penetration techniques to evaluate enterprise defenses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cb\u003ePenetration Testing\u003c\/b\u003e, security expert, researcher, and trainer Georgia Weidman introduces you to the core skills and techniques that every pentester needs. Using a virtual machine-based lab that includes Kali Linux and vulnerable operating systems, you'll run through a series of practical lessons with tools like Wireshark, Nmap, and Burp Suite. As you follow along with the labs and launch attacks, you'll experience the key stages of an actual assessment - including information gathering, finding exploitable vulnerabilities, gaining access to systems, post exploitation, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLearn how to:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrack passwords and wireless network keys with brute-forcing and wordlists\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTest web applications for vulnerabilities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse the Metasploit Framework to launch exploits and write your own Metasploit modules\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutomate social-engineering attacks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBypass antivirus software\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTurn access to one machine into total control of the enterprise in the post exploitation phase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou'll even explore writing your own exploits.
