About the Book

This is a book for anyone wanting to get started with ethical hacking or to solidify their knowledge of the fundamentals. It is based on real hacking scenarios that are provided by Hack The Box, a site that makes developing ethical hacking skills a fun and enjoyable experience.

I am Dr David Glance and I teach cybersecurity at the University of Western Australia. Apart from spending time on Hack The Box and writing books about it, I do consulting and research in cybersecurity.
