By reading this book you will discover and learn all the possible information, methods and techniques with regards to Cybersecurity and Ethical Hacking in general, why you should choose it, the need for cyber security and how can you be part of it and fill the cybersecurity talent gap bit by bit. This E-book also begins with the fundamentals of Ethical Hacking, including how to hack safely and legally and how to install and use Kali Linux and the Linux terminal. Ethical hacking also involves an authorized attempt to gain unauthorized access to a computer system, application, or data. Carrying out an ethical hack involves duplicating strategies and actions of malicious attackers. This practice helps to identify security vulnerabilities which can then be resolved before a malicious attacker has the opportunity to exploit them. Ethical hackers use their knowledge to secure and improve the technology of organizations. They provide an essential service to these organizations by looking for vulnerabilities that can lead to a security breach. An ethical hacker reports the identified vulnerabilities to the organization. Additionally, they provide remediation advice. In many cases, with the organization’s consent, the ethical hacker performs a re-test to ensure the vulnerabilities are fully resolved. Malicious hackers intend to gain unauthorized access to a resource (the more sensitive the better) for financial gain or personal recognition. Some malicious hackers deface websites or crash back-end servers for fun, reputation damage, or to cause financial loss. The methods used and vulnerabilities found remain unreported. They aren’t concerned with improving the organizations security posture.Ethical – Hacker experts follow four key protocol concepts:Stay legal. Obtain proper approval before accessing and performing a security assessment.Define the scope. Determine the scope of the assessment so that the ethical hacker’s work remains legal and within the organization’s approved boundaries.Report vulnerabilities. Notify the organization of all vulnerabilities discovered during the assessment. Provide remediation advice for resolving these vulnerabilities.Respect data sensitivity. Depending on the data sensitivity, ethical hackers may have to agree to a non-disclosure agreement, in addition to other terms and conditions required by the assessed organization.All ethical hackers should have:Expertise in scripting languages.Proficiency in operating systems.A thorough knowledge of networking.A solid foundation in the principles of information security.In short, this guide contains all the knowledge needed for assessing the security of computer systems by looking for weaknesses and vulnerabilities in target systems, using the same knowledge and tools as a malicious hacker, but in a lawful and legitimate manner to assess the security posture of a target system!Key Features- The basics of Hacking and Ethical Hacking including common terms and misconceptions
