Great book for beginners looking to understand Linux from a hackers mindset.

Great book. This book opened my eyes to Linux and has made it simple to learn. Even if you're not into cyber security I think it's a must read.

Great start

Delivery on timeso good start.Was a little unsure at first given the price and with so many books out there had me at first however I am glad I purchased this book due to watching some videos on YT with Occupy the Web and also his huge praise and skills on "X".I have been trying Linux for some years start to learn then stop yet past few year I have looked back into Kali Linux and this book is a must have for anyone starting out in Linux or even refreshing some basics.About time we had a good simple effective book and for this it is worth the money👍

This book is useful for beginners/intermediates

I decided to give this book 4 stars just because I like the way it is laid out (speaking frankly colour in the book wouldn't have gone a miss, it is all black and white with a little grey) and also that it is useful if you are just beginning to get into all this stuff. There were parts that when I followed along it worked and some other parts it didn't work but that is because I didn't have all the proper tools/packages installed.I am wondering why carefulbuyer decided to buy this surely he could read the title of the book?? I read his review and since he was already familiar with all the concepts it made no sense and his weird thing of wanting to find new information didn't make sense given what the title is, I suppose some new concepts could be introduced however since this was clearly aimed at beginners and people with very little knowledge then he just decided to buy the book to bash the author which I think is wrong.There are parts the author could improve in the next book if they decide to write a new book or a more advanced book in the future. A little bit of testing while also writing the book couldn't have gone a miss either, however if the book doesn't tell you what packages you need and you need to do research on the internet to find out I will just guess that is the author not spoon feeding everything to you, you don't learn by being given everything, you get given a little and you make something from that and what you don't know you find out from research yourself.I am using my real name because people can use any name for their reviews and I find leaving the real name allows reviewers who read the reviews to say yes this guy must be real or this guy was clearly paid to write a review.Regardless of whether you read the reviews or not just think carefully whether you want to spend your money on this book as it is your money and only you can make the decision whether to spend it or not. Always do the research first before buying.Thank You for reading this reviewMark

Great into to Linux

Firstly this is an introduction to Linux. If you have already been exposed to Linux you need to pick up something else. Book runs through the basics from setting up a virtual machine to the way Linux is structured to more advanced exploitation techniques using Kali. The book is aimed at those who have an interest in InfoSec or who are already in the sector, the author very much sells it as in order to defense you need to know how to offense. Personally I currently work in the sector but very much from a compliance perspective so ISO 27001, PCI, auditing. This book is ideal for patching the gaps and giving a foundation of Linux skills to build on. Its really well printed and the author relly presents the topic well. The author also has a great companion website with a video series although this is an additional fee. In short would recommend.

Amazing and intuitive

Great introduction to the foundations of Linux and hacking, I have no previous knowledge of Linux or computer hacking, but bought this to scratch my curiosity and it's excelled in making another grasshopper in the hacking world. Occupy the Web delivers the ethos and mindset of hacking along with technical know how that is not riddled in in explained jargon. Thumbs up and thanks. X

Great for learning some basic Linux

Another great book from OTW showing various ways to exploit systems through Linux (instead of using Oracle Virtual Box as suggested I used VM workstation). No major issues that am online search couldn't resolve.Still gets an A+
