What book next?
« on: November 23, 2014, 06:48:37 PM »
I've finished "Penetration Testing: A Hands-On Introduction to Hacking".

Can you suggest me another book to study?

I've thought about:

  • Advanced Penetration Testing for Highly-Secured Environments
  • The Shellcoder's Handbook
  • Gray Hat Hacking
  • Practical Reverse Engineering
  • Practical Malware Analysis
  • Violent Python
What I've enjoyed the most from the book: using Immunity Debugger; exploiting; anyways, the whole book was fun

Reading a book without practicing what is written in there is just as good as putting a novel under your pillow at night and hoping that you will know the book in the morning.

As for next book suggestion - depends on what you want to do next.

Drop the book stuff. Know your passion and interest in this vast world, grab a VM image or a wargame and hack away.
If you can't explain it to a 6 year old, you don't understand it yourself.

To those who are asking what interests me:
attacking machines via network; exploit development; remote exploitation. I've also enjoyed the 'stack-based overflow', using Immunity Debugger and looking at memory etc.
If that can help you help me ;)

I'd get assembly is required for good exploits, isn't it?
But is it also valuable for network pentesting and exploiting?
