文档介绍：A valuable extension to the Hacking Exposed franchise; the authors do a great job of
incorporating the vast pool of knowledge of security testing from the team who built the Open
Source Security Testing Methodology Manual (OSSTMM) into an easy-to-digest, concise read
on how Linux systems can be hacked.

You’ll feel as if you are sitting in a room with the authors as they walk you through the steps
the bad guys take to attack work and the steps you need to take to protect it. Or, as the
authors put it: “Separating the asset from the threat.” Great job, guys!

An excellent resource for security information, obviously written by those with real-world
experience. The thoroughness of the information is impressive—very useful to have it presented in
one place.
