Rosa Velvet Posted July 2, 2018 Posted July 2, 2018 Hey good peeps, I would like to start a thread on your favorite hacking books. Ones you read recently and taught you one or two new tricks, or ones that you read a decade ago and literally changed your way of thinking about hacking!! Allow me to start first : Books of old that shaped my hacking career (a bit outdated now but still great): The Art of Intrusion - The Real Stories Behind the Exploits of Hackers, Intruders and Deceivers , Kevin Mitnick Counter Hack Reloaded - A Step-by-Step Guide to Computer Attacks and Effective Defenses, Ed Skoudis The Web Application Hacker's Handbook - Finding and Exploiting Security Flaws by Dafydd Stuttard Books that rocked my geeky tea times recently: How to Hack Like a Legend - A hacker’s tale breaking into a secretive offshore company , Sparc Flow The Art of Memory Forensics - Detecting Malware and Threats in Windows, Linux, and Mac Memory Hacker Playbook 3 - Practical Guide To Penetration Testing Your turn!
