Beschreibung
As a security pro or beginner, if you want to get up and running with ParrotOS for ethical hacking and penetration testing, this book is a must-have. It starts with an intro to ParrotOS, its unique security-oriented environment, and key components, and then moves step-by-step into hands-on exercises. You'll learn how to install and customize ParrotOS, manage user accounts, and set up critical network configurations. It's all hands-on, with each chapter focusing on real-world tasks and popular tools like Metasploit, Burp Suite, OWASP ZAP, John the Ripper, and Aircrack-ng. You'll learn the essential pentesting techniques for assessing vulnerabilities, exploiting weaknesses, and maintaining access within hacked networks.
You'll even learn to intercept and manipulate web traffic, automate scans, and execute controlled exploits to retrieve sensitive data and escalate privileges. The steps are clearly laid out so that you can build your confidence and skills on your own. The focus here is on giving you a solid hands-on experience with the essential tools needed for penetration testing tasks, and it's all done on ParrotOS. No matter what your interests are, whether it's network reconnaissance, automating scripts, or monitoring systems, this book has got you covered when it comes to tackling the latest security challenges.
