Following the success of Linux Basics for Hackers, OccupytheWeb does what he did for Linux to Networks. Networks of all types, including TCP/IP, Bluetooth Networks, Car Networks, W-iFi Networks, Radio Frequency Networks, SCADA/ICS Networks, and more. In his inimitable style, Master OTW makes the seemingly complex, simple.

This book is designed for beginner to intermediate cybersecurity professionals. It begins with the basics of networks and networking, examines network analysis with Wireshark and tcpdump, offers one of the most complete and in-depth analyses of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth networks, then progresses through the various protocols such as DNS, ARP, SMTP, and others. The reader will be led through the building of those applications in Linux, such as an EXIM server for email or a BIND server for DNS. Then OTW leads the reader through the major vulnerabilities of that protocol/application.

We will start with basic networking and TCP/IP concepts and then progress to tools for analyzing network packets and protocols. Then we will examine each of the major networking protocols, build their application in a Linux system and analyze their weaknesses that can be exploited by hackers. Finally, we will advance to some more advanced topics such as Automobile Networks, SCADA/ICS networks, Radio Frequency (RF) networks, and Mobile networks.

In the final chapters, OTW leads the reader through some of the networks on the leading-edge of cybersecurity, such as Car, Radio, and Industrial networks. There has never been book quite like this one!
