Cybersecurity - Black Hat Pen Testing: Post-Secondary Graduate Offensive Exploitation & Breaching (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798989923694)

Welcome to the world of penetration testing and black hat hacking! If you're reading this writing, chances are you're curious about the unseen and most often taken for granted forces that shield and, sometimes, threaten our digital lives. Maybe you're a business leader, a concerned parent, or just a technical enthusiast who wants to understand the basics of cybersecurity without diving too deep into the technical jargon, which generally seems to overwhelm us.

In an age where our personal information, financial transactions, and even our daily routines are increasingly managed through digital platforms, understanding the basics of how these systems can be compromised-and how they can be defended-has never been more important. Although, this writing will delve very little into the defense, and had been written with the "other" side in mind, the offense.

This writing takes you through some of the most basic principles of cybersecurity as they relate to penetration testing, black hat hacking, and the exploitation and breaching of platforms in a way that's engaging, accessible, and free of unnecessary intricacies. I will clarify the jargon, break down the concepts, and provide real-world examples to help you grasp how cybersecurity professionals work to keep our digital spaces safe.

You'll learn what penetration testing is and why it's crucial for identifying vulnerabilities before malicious hackers can breach them. We'll explore common hacking techniques using free programs, the actual programs hackers use in the real world.

Whether you're looking to protect your business, safeguard your personal information, or simply gain a better understanding of the digital security landscape, this writing will equip you with the foundational knowledge you need. By the end, you'll have a clearer view of how penetration testers play a vital role in defending our digital world, through the use of free hacking programs.
