Customer Reviews & Comments
This review is from: Hacking: The Art of Exploitation (Paperback)
This book is for the security pro or would be hacker who want's to begin to see how deep the rabbit hole really does go. There is no other book like it on the market, and I've read most of them. Jon Erickson's code included in the book all works well as designed on Linux. The author also suggests some good free Linux tools for use with the code examples including most notably a hex editor, basic dissassembler, and packet injector. The techniques in the book are best described by a caption on its back cover, "The fundamental techniques of serious hacking." It includes major sections on programming, networking, and cryptography. All material is covered with an eye towards exploitation. Languages used in the book material consist of C, PERL, and Assembly for X86. The techniques described in this book are fundamental to any hacker or security professional who takes their work seriously. The book is well worth the discounted amazon.com price. The material in this book is all original and cannot be found elsewhere. Each example in the programming section is truly an eye opener if you are new to code hacking. The examples in the networking and cryptography sections are relevant and fresh as well.
