Ethical Hacking: A Hands-on Introduction to Breaking In

I learn a lot from this book, it’s very good and hands on labs that will help me understand hacking better

As expected :)

Good book for learning Cyber Security.

It’s a great book. Wonderful for the absolute beginner. I highly recommend. 4 stars because it’s almost too easy of a read.

Great book so far. 5/5 for me. Well written, lots of great, solid information that is up to date, great explanations, and even labs to go with it! I haven't finished just yet, but i have gone through enough to write a review. great stuff! EDIT: I am also a beginner in this field, if that helps :)

This is a book that starts at zero and offers a comprehensive course in penetration techniques and everything you need to know. I was very satisfied.

First, I bought this book (and paid the full price) from a local bookstore. Also, I have not finished the entire book yet, but so far I am having a lot of fun learning.If you don't have any computer or network experience, the learning curve on this subject will be amazingly steep. It starts with relatively simple concepts but jumps quickly into the heart of networking. Anyone can follow along, but understanding it well enough to know what or why could be difficult. The title of the book might be enough to tell you that. The hands on examples given may not work on all systems and you may have to make some changes. Experience with IT concepts will help you stay on track. For example, not all ISP provided equipment works the same and you may need to make changes to your home network, or you may run into issues with outdated libraries in Linux preventing a Python script from running. Knowing what to do will save you a lot of time.If you have some background in IT, like Help Desk or network engineering experience, this will be a fun journey into Ethical Hacking. You'll need a computer powerful enough to host about 5 Virtual Machines, but if you are in the computer section of a bookstore looking at Ethical Hacking topics, you probably already have this.

Really like how accessible the book is, and how well topics are explained and concepts taught. The book walks you through step-by-step how to set up your environment and prepares you for how to do the exercises. Well done, No Starch
