Review
"The hacking community is fraught with Eastern military comparisons. Like the ninja, we are continuing to come out of the shadows of our communal origins and grow into respected members of a larger society. As our industry matures, it demands more formal education, strict regulations and an adherence to a code of ethics. Therefore it becomes increasingly difficult to incorporate the culture of the unconventional warrior into our new world. Enter Wilhelm and Andress, who make it safe to show off your fu again. By the end of this book, the security professional is given the philosophical foundation along with a practical framework from which to leverage the way of the ninja. What could be cooler?"-- Donald C. Donzal, Editor-in-Chief, The Ethical Hacker Network
Customer Reviews & Comments This book is very difficult to rate, because half the book is technical while the other half is historical. I expected the book to be about the new intrusion techniques and what i got was mostly a book about the history of ninjas. While not uninteresting, it is not what i expected and i cannot recommand it for a technical book.
Good points: The section on mobile pentesting is interesting. Historical Research is complete.
Bad points: Other technical aspects are pretty much the same as every other books. For a beginner, i would recommand Professional Pentesting, from the same author.
Bottom Line: Should have been 2 books. 1 on the history of the Ninja. 1 on "new" hacking techniques. Both promised but none delivered.
