Linux Basics for Hackers: Getting Started with Networking, Scripting, and Security in Kali

Ive been in the cybersecurity industry for many years now but Im much more familiar with Windows than I am with Linux. Consequently I need to periodically review the Linux commands and this book fit the bill for a reasonable price. If youre relatively unfamiliar with Linux this is a good book. If you have a solid understanding of Linux and the Linux command line/shell I wouldnt suggest this book to you.

This should be your first book when it comes to CyberSecurity and Ethical hacking.

if you are starting from zero this book might be good for you.

This book started out as a great overview for kali linux and getting set up. With some exceptions most of the walkthroughs worked flawlessly during the first half of the book but towards the end some of the commands weren’t exactly right. I was able to perform ~90% of the exercises but it would be good to revisit and provide the necessary updates. Overall very pleased.

Ive taken 2 separate Linux courses costing several hundred dollars each, but I feel that I retained the information better with this book! Definitely worth the cost, buying 2nd book now!
