Book Description
With the ever-increasing amount of data flow in recent times, information security has become vital to any application. This is where Kali Linux plays a significant role, focusing mainly on security auditing and penetration testing. This cookbook on network scanning will train you in important scanning concepts based on version 2016.2. You'll be able to conquer any network environment by exploring a range of network scanning techniques, and learning how to script your very own tools.
Starting with the fundamentals of installing and managing Kali Linux, this book will help you map your target with a wide range of network scanning tasks, including discovery, port scanning, and fingerprinting. You will then learn how to use the tools available in Kali Linux to conquer any network environment. The book also offers extensive coverage of the popular Burp Suite and features new and updated scripts for automating scanning and target exploitation. In later chapters, you'll understand how to identify remote services and assess security risks, along with discovering how different attacks are performed. Finally, you will cover the latest features of Kali Linux 2016.2, including the enhanced Sparta tool and a variety of exciting updates.
By the end of this book, you will be equipped with the skills you need to effectively script your own tools and become an expert at network scanning.
