A propos de cet article

Fully revised to include all new chapters on attacking cloud applications, industrial control systems, and recent vulnerabilities, you'll learn Metasploit's module system, conventions, and interfaces as you launch simulated attacks. The Metasploit Framework makes discovering, exploiting, and sharing systemic vulnerabilities quick and painless. But, this popular pentesting tool can be hard to grasp for first-time users. Written by some of the world's top hackers and security experts, Metasploit fills the gap by teaching you how to best harness the Framework and interact with its vibrant community of Metasploit open-source contributors.  This indispensable guide's updated second edition introduces modules and commands recently added to the Metasploit Framework, along with new chapters on the Cloud Lookup (and Bypass) module and attacking IoT or SCADA (industrial) systems using the Mobius client module. You'll learn: modern pentesting techniques, including network reconnaissance and enumeration, the Metasploit Framework's conventions, interfaces, and module system, client-side attacks, wireless exploits, targeted social-engineering attacks. In a digital ecosystem increasingly driven by cloud-based and industrial attacks, the modern hacking techniques covered in Metasploit, 2nd Edition are essential for today's penetration testers.

Synopsis

The new and improved guide to penetration testing using the legendary Metasploit Framework.

Metasploit: The Penetration Tester’s Guide has been the definitive security assessment resource for over a decade. The Metasploit Framework makes discovering, exploiting, and sharing vulnerabilities quick and relatively painless, but using it can be challenging for newcomers.

Written by renowned ethical hackers and industry experts, this fully updated second edition includes:

• Advanced Active Directory and cloud penetration testing
• Modern evasion techniques and payload encoding
• Malicious document generation for client-side exploitation
• Coverage of recently added modules and commands 

Starting with Framework essentials—exploits, payloads, Meterpreter, and auxiliary modules—you’ll progress to advanced methodologies aligned with the Penetration Test Execution Standard (PTES). Through real-world examples and simulated penetration tests, you’ll:

• Conduct network reconnaissance and analyze vulnerabilities
• Execute wireless network and social engineering attacks
• Perform post-exploitation techniques, including privilege escalation
• Develop custom modules in Ruby and port existing exploits
• Use MSFvenom to evade detection
• Integrate with Nmap, Nessus, and the Social-Engineer Toolkit

Whether you’re a cybersecurity professional, ethical hacker, or IT administrator, this second edition of Metasploit: The Penetration Tester’s Guide is your key to staying ahead in the ever-evolving threat landscape.
