If you're getting started along the exciting path of hacking, cybersecurity, and pentesting, this book is an excellent first step. Using Kali Linux - an advanced penetration testing distribution of Linux - you'll quickly pick up the basics of using the Linux operating system, and acquire the tools and techniques you'll need to take control of a Linux environment. Later chapters focus on foundational hacking concepts like security, anonymity and scripting, along with practical tutorials and exercises that test your skills. This fully revised second edition covers the latest version of Kali, includes new options for setting up a Linux virtual machine, and discusses some differences between the bash and Z shells used on the newest versions of the distribution. It also addresses contemporary examples of real-world hacking, such as the cyberwar between Russia and Ukraine. You'll learn how to: Install Kali on a virtual machine and build your own hacking tools; Perform common tasks like manipulating text and controlling file and directory permissions; Cover your tracks by leveraging the rsyslog logging utility; Hide your internet activity using Tor, proxy servers, VPNs, and encrypted email; Write bash and Python scripts to scan open ports for potential targets. If you're ready to dive into hacking, cybersecurity, or pentesting, Linux Basics for Hackers, 2nd Edition is exactly what you need to get going.

This practical, tutorial-style book uses the Kali Linux distribution to teach Linux basics with a focus on how hackers would use them. Topics include Linux command line basics, filesystems, networking, BASH basics, package management, logging, and the Linux kernel and drivers.Many aspiring hackers are unfamiliar with Linux, having learned computer basics in a Windows or Mac environment. This can pose the single most important obstacle to mastering the skills to becoming a better hacker; while hacking can be done with Windows or OS X, nearly all hacking tools are developed specifically for Linux. Linux Basics for Hackers aims to provide you with a foundation of Linux skills that every hacker needs. You''ll learn the advantages of Linux over other operating systems for hacking purposes, then move into the brass tacks: command line basics, filesystems, networking, bash, package management, compressing and archiving, process management, logging, device storage, and the Linux kernel. This comprehensive guide also addresses MySQL and postgresql (the database system Metasploit runs on) and some Python scripting. As you progress, you''ll have access to numerous real-world examples and hands-on exercises to apply your new knowledge and bring yourself up to speed.
