WHAT S NEW IN THE FIFTH EDITION

WHAT'S NEW IN THE FIFTH EDITION

We continue to update Hacking Exposed because new technologies are being developed continually that introduce new security exposures. In essence, the security world and its associated challenges parallel the rate of technology change. That is, as the complexity of technology increases at an exponential rate, so do the security challenges. This is both good news and bad news, depending on what side of the fence you sit on. In addition, new techniques, tools, and attack vectors used to circumvent existing security technologies are being developed at a mind-numbing rate. You could say it is the proverbial cat and mouse game; however, the stakes are very real. In this edition, we have worked tirelessly to update this venerable tome to cover the latest technologies and provide you with the latest techniques.
