Dear all,
So over christmas and into the new year I'm putting together the 2nd
edition of my Internet-based pentesting book, Network Security
Assessment (http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/networksa/), which will be an
update of the original, with obsolete information removed, and some new
chapters, including exploit frameworks and web application assessment.
If you've read the 1st edition and have any comments or things that
you'd like to see in the 2nd, please let me know so that I can add them
in.. details of useful tools that aren't mentioned in the 1st edition
would be good, along with any testing approaches or techniques that I
didn't cover (particularly in regard to IPsec VPN, Citrix, Oracle, and
other specific services that I cover in the book). Please no requests
for 802.11 wireless hacking chapters, local network testing (sniffing,
ARP spoofing, VLAN hacking), wardialling, etc. -- this book is for
Internet-based testing only, and I hope it can become a reference manual
for professional testers everywhere.
Thanks in advance,
Chris
