tools. This powerful tool kit and authoritative reference is written by the
security industry's foremost penetration testers including HD Moore, Jay Beale,
and SensePost. This unique package provides you with a completely portable and
bootable Linux attack distribution and authoritative reference to the toolset
included and the required methodology.
Penetration testing a network requires a delicate balance of art and science. A
penetration tester must be creative enough to think outside of the box to
determine all possible attack vector into his own network, and also be expert in
using the literally hundreds of tools required to execute the plan and
meticulously document their results. This book provides both the art and the
science. The authors of the book are expert penetration testers who have
developed many of the leading pen testing tools; such as the Metasploit
framework. The authors allow the reader inside their heads to unravel the
mysteries of thins like identifying targets, enumerating hosts, application
fingerprinting, cracking passwords, and attacking exposed vulnerabilities. Along
the way, the authors provide an invaluable reference to the hundreds of
hijacking tools; sniffers; scanners; Web application; and vulnerability
assessment tools from the bootable-Linux CD including the Metasploit Framework;
ettercap, dsniff, Ethereal, Nmap, Paketto, Scanrand, Hydra, Paros, Nessus, and

This book is about one of the most crucial aspects of system and security
management: host integrity protection. Fundamentally, host integrity protection
is all about understanding the changes that occur on your system--friendly or
hostile, deliberate or accidental--and understanding the impact of those
changes. In other words, it's change control in a potentially hostile
environment. Best of all, this book is written by Brian Wotring, who has
designed and deployed host integrity monitoring systems, used them, and relied
on their results. It's hard to overstate the value of such experience. Books
like the one you're holding are the survival kits for the future of computing.
They're full of the important clues that you're going to need if you want to be
one of the survivors instead of the statistics.

Norman Housley, "Religious Warfare in Europe 1400-1536"
Oxford University Press | ISBN 0198208111 | 2002 Year | PDF | 1,1 Mb | 250
Pages[cut]
Religious warfare has been a recurrent feature of European history. In this
intelligent and readable new study, the distinguished Crusade historian Norman
Housley describes and analyses the principal expressions of holy war in the
period from the Hussite wars to the first generation of the Reformation. The
context was one of both challenge and expansion. The Ottoman Turks posed an
unprecedented external threat to the 'Christian republic', while doctrinal
dissent, constant warfare between states, and rebellion eroded it from within.
This is a major contribution to both Crusade history and the study of the Wars
of Religion of the early modern period. Professor Housley explores the
interaction between Crusade and religious war in the broader sense, and argues
that the religious violence of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries was
organic, in the sens that it sprang from deeply rooted proclivities within
European society.

Pages[cut]
Now brought completely up to date, this classic study by one of the world's
premier historians of the Middle East considers the achievement of the Arab
peoples and their place in world history, from pre-Islamic times to the present-
day. In a concise and readable account, Lewis examines the awakening that
accompanied the advent of Islam and the political, religious, and social
developments that transformed the Arab kingdom into an Islamic empire. He brings
the edition up-to-the-minute with an account of recent events in the Middle East
and analyzes the forces, internal and external, that have shaped the modern Arab
world. Lewis shows how Western inventions and institutions have shattered the
old structures and the traditional way of life, affecting every Arab, and
causing a still unsatisfied demand for social, political, and cultural renewal.
Incisive and intriguing, this highly regarded and timely work - previously
translated into Arabic, as well as many other European, Asian, and Middle
Eastern languages - is sure to advance a greater understanding of the Arab past
and present.
