TECHNIQUES AND TOOLS FOR PENETRATION TESTING

How do hackers probe systems for known vulnerabilities? What tools do they use? How does legal penetration testing for third parties work? Carole Fennelly tried to find the answers of those questions by interviewing three famous hackers. Find out how the "good hackers" do what they enjoy doing, and get paid for it. The triple interview comes also with a very interesting appendix: a list of the most popular scanning tools with descriptions and examples of how they work-- information that could be of use not only to hackers but also to network and system administrators.
