As you follow along with the labs and launch attacks, you ll experience the key stages of an actual assessment including information gathering, finding exploitable vulnerabilities, gaining access to systems, post exploitation, and more.

Learn how to:
Crack passwords and wireless network keys with brute-forcing and wordlists
Test web applications for vulnerabilities
Use the Metasploit Framework to launch exploits and write your own Metasploit modules
Automate social-engineering attacks
Bypass antivirus software
Turn access to one machine into total control of the enterprise in the post exploitation phase

You ll even explore writing your own exploits. Then it s on to mobile hacking Weidman s particular area of research with her tool, the Smartphone Pentest Framework.

With its collection of hands-on lessons that cover key tools and strategies, Penetration Testing is the introduction that every aspiring hacker needs.
