The Ethical Hack: A Framework for Business Value Penetration Testing

Now there is a resource that illustrates how an organisation can gain as much value from an ethical hack as possible.

The Ethical Hack: A Framework for Business Value Penetration Testing explains the methodologies, framework, and 'unwritten conventions' that ethical hacks should employ to provide the maximum value to organisations that want to harden their security.

This book goes beyond the technical aspects of penetration testing to address the processes and rules of engagement required for successful tests. It examines testing from a strategic perspective. It sheds light on how testing ramifications affect an entire organisation.

Security practitioners can use this resource to reduce their exposure and deliver a focused, valuable service to customers. Organisations will learn how to align the information about tools, techniques, and vulnerabilities that they gathered from testing with their overall business objectives.

• Provides the framework for protecting security professionals, and confidential information during testing.
• The text highlights the need for proper communications, expectations, and metrics before testing.
• The book is unique in connecting reconnaissance, data collection, vulnerability analysis, exploitation, analysis, and other testing components to overall business objectives.
