About this book

If you're a pentester, red teamer, or a cybersecurity specialist or analyst, Infrastructure Attacks for Ethical Hackers will guide you in learning various attack techniques and toolsets to test the security of an organization.

Starting with the fundamentals of infrastructure attacks, you'll explore initial recon and enumeration techniques for external network attacks. You'll then get to grips with OS enumeration, privilege escalation, and multiple defense evasion techniques, along with techniques that can be used for situational awareness inside the network. The book also covers Active Directory concepts, enumeration, and attacks that can be leveraged to compromise Domain Controllers. As you advance, the book introduces the concepts of cloud computing servers, architecture, usage, recon, and attacks on cloud infrastructure such as AWS, Azure, and GCP. Finally, you'll learn the art of attacking a network of ICS, including SCADA systems and IoT devices.

By the end of this ethical hacking book, you'll be confident in performing advanced-level network attacks and be able to use multiple toolsets for your penetration testing projects such as Metasploit, Covenant, .NET binaries, and Mimikatz.
