Hacking: Penetration Testing, Basic Security and How To Hack (Hackers, Hacking, How to Hack, Penetration Testing, Internet Security, Computer Virus)

Three stars for the good information provided...But the formatting, spelling, and grammar errors make for a rather difficult read. I would suggest using a pencil to underline and take notes - you can add in the missing words and clarify confusing sentences. (The formatting is nice and helpful to read, but there are errors, like with bulleted lists sometimes items aren't bulleted while others are.)The information is nice... For hacking into wifi it gives step-by-step instructions, except it's brute-force guessing hacking which is really inefficient. The definitions are helpful and make sense... I'd say a pretty good read if you're focused enough to get through the grammar mistakes (they are pretty distracting).Also, as a superficial side note, the cover is a little blurry. Thought I'd mention that.

A better information to know! Hacking is really rampant nowadays. I can say if I may not generalized it,many hackers do things that is beyond its limit. What I mean is doing hacking to commit an awful act. You know what I mean. But there is always good things in it. Protecting and keeping your system safe is very important.The book itself contains information that everyone must know. Chapters are worth reading for. Easy to follow too. I know my cousin will be very happy to have this book too :)

The book was very, very basic. So basic that I would get lost in what the author was trying to say. The only redeeming section within the book was where five software applications where listed and briefly described as to what their purpose was for. The most difficult part of the book was it's composition. There were words added or missing throughout. It reminded me of reading a book by someone using English as a secondary language. If that were the case then the author should have had someone proficient in English proofread the book prior to publishing.

Hacking was made easy with the help of this book. I have understood the basics of hacking and its concepts. I have had a good idea about what hacking is and what the consequences be when external or internal parties attack my system. This book has lots of techniques and samples that we could use in hacking and also the kinds of hackers to be like of. Great way in expressing the thoughts of this book.

I am one of the many common people who coined hacking as “illegal”. After reading this book, I have gained a better understanding of what hacking really is. I also learned the difference between hacking and cracking. I highly recommend this book to all beginners who wish to have a broader concept on computer, network, and mobile hacking. This book provides a simplified discussion on how hackers attack our system. It also exposed some of the popular hacking tools. The topic on Penetration Testing is equally informative and very important which helps us in safeguarding our computers, mobiles or network systems. Be aware! Be informed! Grab this book!

I got interested with hacking not because I want to penetrate others' information but to protect my personal information. This book is a reflection of that interest. This book doesn't really focus on how to hack but it teaches the principle behind the activity so that you can secure your own computer. It is well written and explained. I am lucky I was able to purchase it under free promotion.

good book

The book is riddled with silly typos, but it does a pretty good job in explaining the basics of terminology and ideas.There are a few practical examples, bits of good advise in being vigilant in your online shenanigans etc. I finished the book C2C in about an hour.

This book really opens up the world of hacking and online security. The author talks about all the vulnerabilities of our devices including trojans and worms that attack are more easily to most people. Although the book is pretty short but it has some really good information about hacking. Don’t expect to learn how to become a hacker just by reading this book. Those people have devoted lifetimes of efforts to that. Although this book can be a good informational start.

If you want to become a hacker then this is the book for you, highly informative to give you a clear idea how the workings of a computer goes and how to become a master at using one, and hacking one. If you loves computers and are interested in hacking, give this a read.

This is the biggest scam since the never ending story. If you browse Wikipedie and spend 30 minutes. You will get more information.The content is written in kindergarden style, huge font, no content at all, just scratching the surface. This will the most expensive single piece of firewood i have ever bought.

A good starter book , more of a beginners reference book

This is a really nicely-written introduction to hacking. It makes a very interesting read as it gives the reader a broader understanding of hacking as not simply the illegal activity most lay people believe it to be. But above all, it provides clear and straight-forward instruction for beginner hackers, starting with penetration testing and finishing with advice on popular hacking tools. A really interesting and useful book.
