The Basics of Web Hacking: Tools and Techniques to Attack the Web: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The Basics of Web Hacking: Tools and Techniques to Attack the Web" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

The Basics of Web Hacking introduces you to a tool-driven process to identify the most widespread vulnerabilities in Web applications. No prior experience is needed. Web apps are a path of least resistance that can be exploited to cause the most damage to a system, with the lowest hurdles to overcome. This is a perfect storm for beginning hackers. The process set forth in this book introduces not only the theory and practical information related to these vulnerabilities, but also the detailed configuration and usage of widely available tools necessary to exploit these vulnerabilities.

The Basics of Web Hacking provides a simple and clean explanation of how to utilize tools such as Burp Suite, sqlmap, and Zed Attack Proxy (ZAP), as well as basic network scanning tools such as nmap, Nikto, Nessus, Metasploit, John the Ripper, web shells, netcat, and more. Dr. Josh Pauli teaches software security at Dakota State University and has presented on this topic to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the NSA, BlackHat Briefings, and Defcon. He will lead you through a focused, three-part approach to Web security, including hacking the server, hacking the Web app, and hacking the Web user.

With Dr. Paulis approach, you will fully understand the what/where/why/how of the most widespread Web vulnerabilities and how easily they can be exploited with the correct tools. You will learn how to set up a safe environment to conduct these attacks, including an attacker Virtual Machine (VM) with all necessary tools and several known-vulnerable Web application VMs that are widely available and maintained for this very purpose. Once you complete the entire process, not only will you be prepared to test for the most damaging Web exploits, you will also be prepared to conduct more advanced Web hacks that mandate a strong base of knowledge.

  • Provides a simple and clean approach to Web hacking, including hands-on examples and exercises that are designed to teach you how to hack the server, hack the Web app, and hack the Web user
  • Covers the most significant new tools such as nmap, Nikto, Nessus, Metasploit, John the Ripper, web shells, netcat, and more!
  • Written by an author who works in the field as a penetration tester and who teaches Web security classes at Dakota State University

Dedication

This book is dedicated to my lovely wife, Samantha, and my two wonderful daughters, Liz and Maddie. I love you all very much.

Acknowledgments
Honey Bear

To my wife, Samantha: Weve come a long way since being scared teenagers expecting a baby! Your support no matter the projects I take on, your understanding no matter how much I complain, and your composure no matter what comes at our family are legendary and have kept our family chugging along.

Lizard

To my oldest daughter, Liz: Your work ethic, attention to detail, and drive to succeed are an inspiration to me. Im looking forward to the coming years as you take on your next challenges, as I have no doubt you will succeed with flying colors!

Baby Bird

To my youngest daughter, Maddie: Your smile and playful nature always pick me up and make me realize how good we have it. If four open-heart surgeries wont slow you down, what excuse does anybody else have? Keep smiling, playing, and being yourselfwere all better off that way!

Family and Friends

Huge thanks to Merm, Tara, Halverto, Stacy & Steph, Luke & Tracy, David, Dr. B, Crony, my DSU students, and everybody else that Ive surely forgotten that have provided friendship and support. Salute!

And a special note to Dr. Patrick Engebretson, a great friend and colleague, that Ive shared many beers, fried goodies, stories, car rides, and office visits with. Your assistance through this publishing process has been a tremendous help. Do work, big boy!

Last, to my parents, Dr. Wayne and Dr. Crystal Pauli: It appears that those years of twisting my ear, filling my mouth full of soap, and breaking wooden spoons on my butt have finally paid off! (That stuff was allowed in the 1980s and its obvious now that I wasnt the easiest child to raise.) Your love and support have never wavered and I couldnt ask for better parents.

Security Community

Man, what a group. It doesnt matter if youre a complete beginner, a super l33t hacker, or anywhere in between, youre always welcome if youre willing to learn and explore. As a South Dakota guy, I have my own personal Mount Rushmore of Security: a group that not only is highly skilled in security but also has provided me with a ton support.

To Dr. Jared DeMott: Youre one of the finest bug hunters/exploitation gurus in the world, but an even better family man and friend. With all your success it would be easy to forget about us little people at Dakota State University, but instead youve never been a bigger supporter of our mission and goals.

To Dave Kennedy: HUGS! Youre one of the most encouraging security people that Ive ever come across. The amount of fun you have working, training, speaking, and just hanging out with the security community is what this is all about. Im glad our paths crossed and I look forward to many more years of watching you continue to flourish. MORE HUGS!

To Eric Smith: I will never forget watching in awe as you dominated as a one-man red team for our security competition at DSU. Your personal story of hard work, dedication, and hours spent perfecting your craft is one that Ive relayed to my students hundreds of times. Thanks for always making time to come back to Madison, SD, and furthering your demigod status with our students!

To Dafydd Stuttard: I blame you for all of this! The Web Application Hackers Handbook (WAHH) that you authored with Marcus Pinto was one of the first premiere security books that I really dug into. After attending your classes, being the technical reviewer on the 2nd edition of WAHH, using your Burp Suite web application hacking tool extensively, and exchanging countless e-mails with you, its crystal clear that youre the Godfather of web application security. Ive educated over 400 students with WAHH and Burp Suite and hope my book can serve as an on-ramp to your super highway.

Scott WhiteTechnical Reviewer

A special thanks to Scott White for doing a tremendous job reviewing and cleaning up my work. With all the different directions you get pulled and requests for your time, I truly appreciate your expertise, timeliness, and honest feedback. This book is much stronger because of your work!
