Maybe you're just starting with offense security or perhaps you are an experienced professional looking to refine your scripting skills. This is exactly why we wrote this book for you — to give you actionable, in-the-trenches know-how.
What sets this book apart? It’s not just about theory – it’s about action. You will get straight into scripting projects that show how to automate attacks, exploit vulnerabilities, and interface with common tools used in offensive security. After going through it, you should be able to develop and hack your tools or make some workflows automated with ease.
Here’s what you’ll explore inside:
- Introduction: Lay the foundation for your journey into offensive scripting.
- Getting Started with Scripting: The perfect chapter for beginners, introducing Python and Bash basics.
- Python for Offensive Security: Learn how to craft custom exploits, perform network scans, and automate forensic tasks.
- Bash Scripting for Offensive Security: From reconnaissance to system enumeration, automate your tasks like a pro.
- Advanced Scripting Techniques: Take your skills to the next level with multithreading, stealth, evasion, and data manipulation.
- Integrating Scripting with Other Tools: Supercharge your scripts by linking them with tools like Nmap, Metasploit, and Burp Suite.
- Utilizing APIs for Offensive Scripting: Automate data collection and reconnaissance by interacting with REST APIs.
- Combining Scripting with Task Automation Tools: Master cron jobs, Jenkins, and more to automate and streamline your offensive tasks.
- Vulnerability Scanning and Fuzzing: Build custom vulnerability scanners and use OpenVAS, Nessus, and AFL to find weak spots.
- Projects: Put theory into practice with exciting projects like gaining a web shell, reverse shells, network probing, lateral movement, and many more.
Each chapter brings you deeper into the world of offensive scripting, helping you understand not only how but why certain scripts work. Packed with practical examples, advanced techniques, and real-world scenarios, you’ll walk away with the skills to write and execute scripts that work in any penetration testing or red teaming environment.
