Synopsis: A practical and engaging guide to the fundamentals of computer networking, one of the most essential topics for anyone working in cybersecurity.
• Networking is the story of how the internet works. Readers learn how machines across the globe work together to make the internet run and secure user data -- as well as where a network is vulnerable and how it can be compromised
• The book focuses on the security aspects of networking, meaning it's much more tailored to cybersecurity professionals than its competitors
• Where most networking books are dry and convoluted, this book is a conversational, comprehensive, and humorous guide, with real-world examples and common hacking techniques that keep the reader interested without skimping on technical details
• The author guides the reader through safely trying out some networking hacking techniques, like stealing data from corporate networks, eavesdropping on Wi-Fi, and cracking passwords
