Stephen Northcutt, founding president of the SANS Technology Institute

"A great book using Python for offensive security purposes."
Andrew Case, Volatility core developer and coauthor of The Art of Memory Forensics

"If you truly have a hacker s mindset, a spark is all you need to make it your own and do something even more amazing. Justin Seitz offers plenty of sparks."
Ethical Hacker
