About This Book
Hacking For Dummies, 3rd Edition, is a reference guide on hacking your systems
to improve security. The ethical hacking techniques are based on written
and unwritten rules of computer system penetration testing, vulnerability
testing, and information security best practices. This book covers everything
from establishing your hacking plan to testing your systems to plugging
the holes and managing an ongoing ethical hacking program. Realistically,
for many networks, operating systems, and applications, thousands of possible
hacks exist. I cover the major ones on various platforms and systems.
Whether you need to assess security vulnerabilities on a small home office
network, a medium-sized corporate network, or across large enterprise systems,
Hacking For Dummies, 3rd Edition, provides the information you need.
