## Overview

Attacking Network Protocols is a 408-page paperback by No Starch Press that offers an expert-led, attacker’s perspective on network security. Authored by Microsoft’s top bug hunter James Forshaw, it covers everything from networking basics and protocol analysis to advanced exploitation techniques using industry tools like IDA Pro and Wireshark. Perfect for penetration testers and security professionals, this guide equips readers to identify, exploit, and protect against network vulnerabilities with practical, hands-on methods.

## Description

Attacking Network Protocols is a deep-dive into network vulnerability discovery from James Forshaw, Microsoft's top bug hunter. This comprehensive guide looks at networking from an attacker's perspective to help you find, exploit, and ultimately protect vulnerabilities.Part I starts with a rundown of networking basics and traffic capture, as it builds a foundation for analyzing a network. Part II moves on to protocol analysis, both static and dynamic; you'll learn about common protocol structures, cryptography, and protocol security, and how to reverse engineer code with IDA Pro, ILSpy, and Javasnoop. Part III focuses on finding and exploiting vulnerabilities, including an overview of common bug classes, fuzzing, debugging, exhaustion attacks, and how to develop custom tools. Forshaw ends with an overview of the best tools for analyzing and exploiting networks. By the book's end, you'll have a deep understanding of how to analyze network communication and where to look for vulnerabilities.You'll learn how to--Capture, manipulate, and spoof packets both passively and on the wire-Reverse engineer code, brute force passwords, and decrypt traffic-Exploit vulnerabilities with denial-of-service attacks, authentication and authorization bypasses, and memory corruptions-Use capture and analysis tools like IDA Pro, Wireshark, and CANAPE-Strengthen your exploits by rerouting network traffic, exploiting compression, and controlling data flowAttacking Network Protocols is a must-have for any penetration tester, bug hunter, or developer looking to exploit and secure network vulnerabilities.

Review: Exzellent als Leitfaden - Das Buch ist meiner Meinung nach in einem eher einfacheren Englisch geschrieben und beinhaltet sehr viele praktische Teile. An die verwendeten Programme (z.B. Ettercap) wird man hierbei mit einer Schritt-für-Schritt-Anleitung herangeführt. Dies ist auf keinen Fall negativ zu Beurteilen. Kenntnisse auf den Gebieten Netzwerktechnik und verteilte Systeme sind meiner Meinung nach Pflicht, da der Autor eine für die IT-Security relevante Sicht auf Dinge wie das ISO/OSI 7 Schichten Modell bietet. Das Buch sollte auf keinen Fall als fertiges Referenzwerk zur Frage "Wie werde ich ein IT-Security Experte?" verwendet werden. Vielmehr wird man in die richtige Richtung gelenkt und kann das Buch somit als eine Art roten Faden heranziehen.
Review: Great read - Excellent book and desertcart's delivery service is amazing as always.

Excellent book and Amazon's delivery service is amazing as always.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of "must have" for security pros
*by A***E on 19 March 2018*

Great book! I think it is one of those books all security enthusiasts / researchers / pentesters should have. Usually i dont write comments for products i bought but i really liked this book. It actually covers more topics than you see in the description. It doesn't only teach you how to monitor traffic, inject packet, MITM etc.., i knew all of those, but i wasnt really expecting this much clear but in-depth explanations of how to analyse the app and find potential zero days by digging its packet structure bit by bit. Definitely recommend it
