Tradepub is Giving Away “Learning Network Forensics” For Free, Here’s the Link

I just got an email offer for a free digital copy of “Learning Network Forensics” by Samir Datt (2016).  This is a PACKT book that was just released this year.  It is currently selling for $49.99 on Amazon.  I have not read it yet, but it has been on my reading list.  Here is link I used to get it.

 

Full Disclosure:  I do not benefit from this in any way.  This was an offer I received on a daily email digest from “The Hacker News” website.  Tradepub is the company actually giving it away.  I’m pretty sure the link above somehow benefits “The Hacker News” but for free, I don’t mind.

Hacking In Windows Using Nishang With Windows PowerShell, Like A Boss!

As requested, this is the first post of many I’m doing on “hacking” and “pentesting.”  Many admins aren’t comfortable with Linux, or just want to use convenient Windows-based tools, so that’s what we’re going to do.  We’ll talk about a tool called Nishang, which you can use to do many different pentesting and security auditing techniques, using the Windows PowerShell 3.0.

To get started, you will need to download Nishang.  You can click here to go directly to the GibHub page or click the link below to download the latest version directly.  First, here’s a video the creator of Nishang gave at Defcon 21.
