Dive into the world of penetration testing with this comprehensive guide by cybersecurity expert, Brandon S. Keath. Explore each stage of the Penetration Testing Execution Standard, learn essential tools and techniques, and gain insights from real-world examples. Master the art of ethical hacking and become a skilled penetration tester. In this section, we will explore post-exploitation with Metasploit, focusing on the main features of Meterpreter and the use of shells outside of Metasploit. Post-exploitation refers to the actions taken after gaining unauthorized access to a system. The goal is to maintain control, gather valuable information, and, in some cases, pivot to other systems within the network. Meterpreter is a powerful post-exploitation tool included in Metasploit. It provides advanced features and functionalities that facilitate information gathering, privilege escalation, maintaining access, and more. Meterpreter runs in memory, making it difficult to detect by antivirus software.

This informative text/reference presents a detailed review of the state of the art in fog computing paradigm. In particular, the book examines a broad range of important cooperative and distributed computation algorithms, along with their design objectives and technical challenges. The coverage includes the conceptual fundamental of fog computing, its practical applications, cooperative and distributed computation algorithms using optimization, swarm intelligence, matching theory, and reinforcement learning methods. Discussions are also provided on remaining challenges and open research issues for designing and developing the efficient distributed computation solutions in the next-generation of fog-enabled IoT systems. The Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm has been expanded rapidly as a key pillar to realize the smart concept in various domains such as smart cities, smart grids, and smart factories since it enables the interconnection and interoperability of IoT-enabled physical and virtual entities to create smart services and informed decision-making for monitoring, control, and management purposes.

Immerse yourself in the offensive security mindset to better defend against attacks. In The Active Defender: Immersion in the Offensive Security Mindset, Senior Information Security Forensic Analyst Dr. Catherine J. Ullman delivers an expert treatment of the Active Defender approach to information security. In the book, you'll learn to understand and embrace the knowledge you can gain from the offensive security community. You'll become familiar with the hacker mindset, which allows you to gain emergent insight into how attackers operate and better grasp the nature of the risks and threats in your environment. Protecting computers, networks, software programs, and data from attack, damage, or unauthorized access is a difficult job, as evidenced by the fact that successful attacks continue to be on the rise. This book introduces the idea of the Active Defender as an alternative approach to the way cybersecurity defense has typically been practiced. The traditional approach is usually passive or reactive, waiting to respond to alerts or other indications of attack. The Active Defender, by comparison, is someone who seeks to understand a hacker mindset and embraces the knowledge gained from the offensive security community in order to be more effective.

The Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are made up of spatially dispersed autonomous sensors that monitor environmental or physical elements like temperature, sound, and pressure. These sensors’ data is collectively transmitted to a destination via network infrastructure. Because sensor nodes are energy-constrained devices, energy-efficient routing techniques have become more important. Regardless of how far wireless sensor networks (WSN) have progressed, efficient energy utilization is still required to extend the lifetime of the network. The network lifetime depreciates in real-time applications due to sensor node battery limits. Different routing techniques exist, and we have examined and interpreted the results of two hierarchical algorithms, Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) and Power Efficient Gathering in Sensor Information Systems (PEGASIS). The comparison is based on the amount of energy used each transmission and the WSN’s overall lifetime, with simulations performed in MATLAB.

Hacker culture can be esoteric, but this entertaining reference is here to help. Organized from A to Z and written by a longtime hacker, this fun, conversational reference introduces you to key people and companies, fundamental ideas, and milestone films, games, and magazines. From phreaking to deepfakes, from APT to zombie malware, grasping the terminology is crucial to understanding hacker culture and history. If you're just getting started on your hacker journey, you'll find plenty here to guide your learning and help you understand the references and cultural allusions you come across. More experienced hackers will find historical depth, wry humor, and some perhaps surprising facts about familiar cultural touchstones. Computer programming languages can be classified according to how much abstraction they have from a CPU’s instruction set. The most abstracted high-level programming languages are the most human readable and intuitive, such as Perl and Python.
