Metasploit Penetration Testing Cookbook, 2nd Edition
'Metasploit Penetration Testing Cookbook Evade antiviruses, bypass firewalls, and exploit complex environments with the most widely used penetration testing framework' provides a comprehensive, technical guide to malware analysis, binary disassembly, and reverse engineering malicious code. Covering both safe triage analysis and advanced debugging, this guide gives analysts the practical skills required to dissect sophisticated cyber threats.
Readers learn static triage, dynamic behavioral sandboxing, x86/x64 assembly language, disassembly with IDA Pro and Ghidra, live memory debugging with OllyDbg/x64dbg, rootkit detection, process injection analysis, and custom packer unpacking. Authentic malware specimens illustrate how attackers evade detection.
Crucial for reverse engineers, SOC tier-3 analysts, incident responders, and threat researchers defending against sophisticated cyber campaigns.
