Synopsis

KDP Book Description

Master enterprise networking, offensive security, and practical defense techniques through hands-on labs in Networks & Attacks 101. This field guide takes you beyond theory and into real-world scenarios where you'll build network infrastructure, analyze traffic, deploy attacks, and implement defenses in a safe lab environment.

Starting with core networking concepts, you'll learn how to deploy and manage DNS, FTP, and web services using Docker containers, inspect traffic with Wireshark and tcpdump, and secure networks with firewalls and intrusion prevention systems. From there, you'll step into the attacker's perspective by exploring man-in-the-middle attacks, ARP poisoning, DNS poisoning, IP spoofing, denial-of-service attacks, credential stuffing, and command-and-control infrastructure.

The journey doesn't stop with offense. You'll learn how defenders detect, monitor, and prevent threats using tools such as pfSense, Suricata, Wazuh, Active Directory Group Policy Objects, security log ingestion, DNS hardening, and network monitoring. Each lab includes practical exercises designed to reinforce both the technical implementation and the underlying security concepts.

Whether you're a cybersecurity student, aspiring SOC analyst, network administrator, penetration tester, or IT professional looking to strengthen your networking and security skills, Networks & Attacks 101 provides a structured, hands-on path to understanding how modern enterprise networks are built, attacked, and defended.
