Features over 300 pentesting applications included with BackTrack 2. This book offers information on Snort, Nessus, Wireshark, Metasploit, Kismet and other Open Source platforms. It helps you to: perform network reconnaissance, and master the objectives, methodology, and tools of the least understood aspect of a penetration test.
Penetration testing a network requires a delicate balance of art and science. A penetration tester must be creative enough to think outside of the box to determine the best attack vector into his own network, and also be expert in using the literally hundreds of tools required to execute the plan. This second volume adds over 300 new pentesting applications included with BackTrack 2 to the pen tester's toolkit. It includes the latest information on Snort, Nessus, Wireshark, Metasploit, Kismet and all of the other major Open Source platforms.
