Hack The Stack - Using Snort And Ethereal To Master The 8 Layers Of An Insecure Network (2006)

Torrent: Hack The Stack - Using Snort And Ethereal To Master The 8 Layers Of An Insecure Network (2006)
Description:

Release Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
book looks at network security in a new and refreshing way. It guides readers
step-by-step through the "stack" -- the seven layers of a network. Each chapter
focuses on one layer of the stack along with the attacks, vulnerabilities, and
exploits that can be found at that layer. The book even includes a chapter on
the mythical eighth layer: The people layer.

This book is designed to offer readers a deeper understanding of many common
vulnerabilities and the ways in which attacker's exploit, manipulate, misuse,
and abuse protocols and applications. The authors guide the readers through this
process by using tools such as Ethereal (sniffer) and Snort (IDS). The sniffer
is used to help readers understand how the protocols should work and what the
various attacks are doing to break them. IDS is used to demonstrate the format
of specific signatures and provide the reader with the skills needed to
recognize and detect attacks when they occur.

What makes this book unique is that it presents the material in a layer by layer
approach which offers the readers a way to learn about exploits in a manner
similar to which they most likely originally learned networking. This
methodology makes this book a useful tool to not only security professionals but
also for networking professionals, application programmers, and others. All of
the primary protocols such as IP, ICMP, TCP are discussed but each from a
security perspective. The authors convey the mindset of the attacker by
examining how seemingly small flaws are often the catalyst of potential threats.
The book considers the general kinds of things that may be monitored that would
have alerted users of an attack.

*Remember being a child and wanting to take something apart, like a phone, to
see how it worked? This book is for you then as it details how specific hacker
tools and techniques accomplish the things they do.

* This book will not only give you knowledge of security tools but will provide
you the ability to design more robust security solutions

* Anyone can tell you what a tool does but this book shows you how the tool
works
