Python is an easy-to-learn and cross-platform programming language that has unlimited third-party libraries. Plenty of open source hacking tools are written in Python, which can be easily integrated within your script.

This book will teach you how to code a reverse shell and build an anonymous shell. You will also learn how to hack passwords and perform a privilege escalation on Windows with practical examples. You will set up your own virtual hacking environment in VirtualBox, which will help you run multiple operating systems for your testing environment.
By the end of this book, you will have learned how to code your own scripts and mastered ethical hacking from scratch.

- Create your own anonymous shell by interacting with Twitter, Google Forms, and SourceForge
- Replicate Metasploit features and build an advanced shell
- Hack passwords using multiple techniques (API hooking, keyloggers, and clipboard hijacking)
- Exfiltrate data from your target
- Add encryption (AES, RSA, and XOR) to your shell to learn how cryptography is being abused by malware
- Discover privilege escalation on Windows with practical examples
- Countermeasures against most attacks
Who this book is for:
This book is for ethical hackers; penetration testers; students preparing for OSCP, OSCE, GPEN, GXPN, and CEH; information security professionals; cybersecurity consultants; system and network security administrators; and programmers who are keen on learning all about penetration testing.
