“I finally get it! I used to hear words like rootkit, buffer overflow, and idle scanning, and they just didn’t make any sense. I asked other people and they didn’t seem to know how these things work, or at least they couldn’t explain them in a way that I could understand. Counter Hack Reloaded is the clearest explanation of these tools I have ever seen. Thank you!” —Stephen Northcutt, CEO, SANS Institute “Ed Skoudis does it again! With this new edition, Ed takes a phenomenal work to the next level! This book is a ‘must-have’ and a ‘must-read’ for anyone remotely associated with computers and computer security.” —Harlan Carvey, CISSP, author of Windows Forensics and Incident Recovery “Ed Skoudis is a rare individual. He knows the innards of all the various systems, knows all the latest exploits and defenses, and yet is able to explain everything at just the right level. The first edition of Counter Hack was a fascinating read. It’s technically intriguing and very clear. . . . A book on vulnerabilities, though, will get out of date, and so we definitely needed this updated and significantly rewritten second edition. This book is a wonderful overview of the field.” —From the Foreword by Radia Perlman, series editor, The Radia Perlman Series in Computer Networking and Security; author of Interconnections; and coauthor of Network Security: Private Communications in a Public World “What a great partnership! Ed Skoudis and Tom Liston share an uncanny talent for explaining even the most challenging security concepts in a clear and enjoyable manner. Counter Hack Reloaded is an indispensable resource for those who want to improve their defenses and understand the mechanics of computer attacks.” —Lenny Zeltser, coauthor of Malware: Fighting Malicious Code “Ed Skoudis does it again! With this new edition, Ed takes a phenomenal work to the next level! This book is a ‘must-have’ and a ‘must-read’ for anyone remotely associated with computers and computer security.”—Harlan Carvey, CISSP, author of Windows Forensics and Incident Recovery“In addition to having breadth of knowledge about and probing insights into network security, Ed Skoudis’s real strength is in his ability to show complex topics in an understandable form. By the time he’s done, what started off as a hopeless conglomeration of acronyms starts to sound comfortable and familiar. This book is your best source for understanding attack strategies, attack tools, and the defenses against both.”—William Stearns, network security expert, www.stearns.org“This book is a must-have for anyone in the Internet security game. It covers everything from the basic principles to the fine details of online attack methods and counter-strategies and is very engagingly written.”—Warwick Ford, coauthor of Secure Electronic CommerceFor years, Counter Hack has been the primary resource for every network/system administrator and security professional who needs a deep, hands-on understanding of hacker attacks and countermeasures. Now, leading network security expert Ed Skoudis, with Tom Liston, has thoroughly updated this best-selling guide, showing how to defeat today’s newest, most sophisticated, and most destructive attacks.For this second edition, more than half the content is new and updated, including coverage of the latest hacker techniques for scanning networks, gaining and maintaining access, and preventing detection. The authors walk you through each attack and demystify every tool and tactic. You’ll learn exactly how to establish effective defenses, recognize attacks in progress, and respond quickly and effectively in both UNIX/Linux and Windows environments.Important features of this new edition includeAll-new “anatomy-of-an-attack” scenarios and toolsAn all-new section on wireless hacking: war driving, wireless sniffing attacks, and moreFully updated coverage of reconnaissance tools, including Nmap port scanning and “Google hacking”New coverage of tools for gaining access, including uncovering Windows and Linux vulnerabilities with MetasploitNew information on dangerous, hard-to-detect, kernel-mode rootkits

In defending your systems against intruders and other meddlers, a little knowledge can be used to make the bad guys--particularly the more casual among them--seek out softer targets. Counter Hack aims to provide its readers with enough knowledge to toughen their Unix and Microsoft Windows systems against attacks in general, and with specific knowledge of the more common sorts of attacks that can be carried out by relatively unskilled "script kiddies." The approach author Ed Skoudis has chosen is effective, in that his readers accumulate the knowledge they need and generally enjoy the process. The best part of this book may be two chapters, one each for Windows and Unix, that explain the essential security terms, conventions, procedures, and behaviors of each operating system. This is the sort of information that readers need--a Unix person getting into Windows administration for the first time needs an introduction to the Microsoft security scheme, and vice versa. A third chapter explains TCP/IP with focus on security. With that groundwork in place, Skoudis explains how (with emphasis on tools) attackers look for vulnerabilities in systems, gain access, and maintain their access for periods of time without being discovered. You'll probably want to search online resources for more specific information--Skoudis refers to several--but this book by itself will provide you with the vocabulary and foundation knowledge you need to get the details you want. --David Wall Topics covered: How black-hat hackers work, what tools and techniques they use, and how to assess and improve your systems' defenses. The author explains how Windows, Unix, and TCP/IP can be exploited for nefarious purposes, and details a modus operandi that's typical of the bad guys.

Computer graphics should look better. Most computer drawings simply do not possess the same clarity or artistry of hand-drawn graphics.We can draw better on the computer. In this book, we learn how. First, we will address and dismiss some common myths and misconceptions about drawing on the computer. Then we will look at some examples of what computer plan graphics can, and should, look like. Next we will learn the principles, strategies, and techniques for drawing well on the computer--skills that you can apply to any computer graphics software on the market. And finally, we will look at some practical, explicit, step-by-step drawing examples using the most familiar and popular graphics software today, Adobe Photoshop. This eBook is derived from the book "Drawing Plan Graphics on the Computer" by C. Carlyle Rood, recipient of the Award of Excellence by the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA-Georgia Chapter) in 2010. The original book is available by print-on-demand at www.DrawingPlanGraphics.com. Because the original book has hundreds of illustrations and screenshots, it was impractical to publish it as one volume of an eBook. Either the quality of the graphics had to be compromised, or the number of images had to be reduced. Instead, the author elected to divide the original book into three volumes. This allowed him to optimize the illustrations for an electronic format, as well as include all original graphics.The ordering of the step-by-step examples follows the sequence in the original book. Volume 1 provides the foundation for the instruction and includes all the principles, strategies, and techniques taught in the original book. Volumes 2 and 3 demonstrate step-by-step examples of drawing plan graphics using the principles, strategies, and techniques taught in Volume 1. All the examples in Volumes 2 and 3 are demonstrated using Adobe Photoshop. Volume 2 includes examples of functional graphics (circulation, focal point, prevailing winds, views, etc.) and master plan graphics of trees (deciduous, coniferous, palm, mass, etc.). Volume 3 includes examples of master plan graphics of shrubs, pools (reflecting, swimming), fountains, inverted shadows, and hatches (including turf, brick, concrete, flagstone, crushed rock, etc.).The instruction is inherently illustrative. The eBook is only recommended for devices that support color and can display graphics at least 600 pixels in width.
