The following is a review of the book METASPLOIT, The Penetration Tester's Guide, by David Kennedy, Jim O'Gorman, Devon Kearns and Mati Aharoni, no starch press, San Francisco, 2011. In a nutshell: This book is a must have for penetration testers. It is an excellent introduction to the Metasploit Framework, that is useful for both beginners and people who would like to leverage their own exploits, using the framework. One thing that stands out in this book from my own point of view is, that one can use Metasploit for the automation of Social Engineering purposes as well. It is not a thing I intend to use myself, but it is absolutely useful to learn about it, first hand from the person who implemented the Social-Engineer Toolkit (SET), himself, David Kennedy. The other authors of the book are also productive people in the field of security. To those who want to write code themselves and use that with metasploit, this book offers a very low threshold introduction. Full Review >
