JUNOS Automation Cookbook. Automate network devices on Juniper's operating system
Adam Chappell
The JUNOS Automation Cookbook is a companion guide for the complex field of automating tasks on JUNOS devices. With a foundation in industry-standrd XML, JUNOS provides an ideal environment for programmatic interation, allowing you to build upon the capabilities provided by Juniper, with your own original code.You will begin by learning about, and setting up, the industry-standard NETCONF remote procedure call mechanisms on your device. After initial setup, you'll walk through SLAX - Juniper's foundation scripting language - for manipulating XML representations of JUNOSconcepts and elements. You'll learn how to write your own SLAX scripts to customise the operating environment, and also how to write proactive event handlers that deal with situations as they happen.You'll then delve into PyEZ - Juniper's bridging framework to make automation accessible to Python code - allowing you to build automation applications in the popular scripting language. You'll witness some examples of how to write applications that can monitor configuration changes, implement BGP security policies and implement ad-hoc routing protocols, for those really tricky situations. You'll also leaarn how asynchronous I/O frameworks like Node.js can be used to implement automation applications that present an acceptable web interface. Along with way, you'll explore how to make use of the latest RESTful APIs that JUNOS provides, how to visualize aspects of your JUNOS network, and how to integrate your automation capabilities with enterprise-wide orchestration systems like Ansible. By the end of the book, you'll be able to tackle JUNOS automation challenges with confidence and understanding, and without hassle.

Microsoft Windows is one of the two most common OSes, and managing its security has spawned the discipline of IT security. Kali Linux is the premier platform for testing and maintaining Windows security. Kali is built on the Debian distribution of Linux and shares the legendary stability of that OS. This lets you focus on using the network penetration, password cracking, and forensics tools, and not the OS.This book has the most advanced tools and techniques to reproduce the methods used by sophisticated hackers to make you an expert in Kali Linux penetration testing. You will start by learning about the various desktop environments that now come with Kali. The book covers network sniffers and analysis tools to uncover the Windows protocols in use on the network. You will see several tools designed to improve your average in password acquisition, from hash cracking, online attacks, offline attacks, and rainbow tables to social engineering. It also demonstrates several use cases for Kali Linux tools like Social Engineering Toolkit, and Metasploit, to exploit Windows vulnerabilities.Finally, you will learn how to gain full system-level access to your compromised system and then maintain that access. By the end of this book, you will be able to quickly pen test your system and network using easy-to-follow instructions and support images.

Vivek Ramachandran, Cameron Buchanan
Odkryj słabe punkty infrastruktury sieciowej! Sieci Wi-Fi obecnie można znaleźć wszędzie — coraz trudniej o miejsce, w którym nie będziemy w zasięgu przynajmniej jednej z nich. Taka sytuacja ma jedną wadę: brak możliwości fizycznej kontroli dostępu do sygnału. Zastanawiasz się, czy Twoja sieć jest bezpieczna i czy żadna postronna osoba nie ma możliwości podłączenia się do wewnętrznych zasobów? To są kluczowe pytania, na które musisz poznać odpowiedź, od tego zależy bezpieczeństwo użytkowników i przetwarzanych danych. Jak przekonać się, czy Twoja sieć jest całkowicie bezpieczna? Spróbuj się do niej włamać! Testy penetracyjne to najskuteczniejsza technika weryfikacji bezpieczeństwa systemów informatycznych. Kali Linux to popularna i zaawansowana dystrybucja systemu Linux, zawierająca zestaw niezbędnych narzędzi każdego pentestera. Jeżeli chcesz wykorzystać jej potencjał, w tej książce znajdziesz szczegółowe omówienie dostępnych narzędzi oraz sposobów prowadzenia ataków. Szyfrowania WEP, WPA/WPA2 mają swoje słabe strony, które może wykorzystać potencjalny intruz, a ataki typu Honeypot, Misassociation, Caffe Latte to tylko niektóre z opisanych tu technik. Dzięki lekturze kolejnych rozdziałów będziesz w stanie sprawdzić podatność na zaawansowane ataki Man-in-the-Middle oraz poznasz metodologię prowadzenia testów penetracyjnych. Sięgnij po tę książkę i zbuduj własne laboratorium do testowania bezpieczeństwa sieci Wi-Fi. Czego możesz dokonać dzięki tej książce... Dowiesz się, jak zbudować własne laboratorium do testowania sieci bezprzewodowych. Naczysz się, jak przechwytywać pakiety przesyłane w sieciach bezprzewodowych. Poznasz sposoby i łamania kluczy szyfrowania WPA-2. Dowiesz się, w jaki sposób wykrywać ukryte sieci, które nie rozgłaszają identyfikatorów SSID. Poznasz zalety i wady różnych technologii sieci bezprzewodowych. Nauczysz się przechwytywać pakiety sondujące i śledzić sieci bezprzewodowe, do których podłączał się użytkownik. Zrozumiesz, jak działa uwierzytelnianie z wykorzystaniem protokołu Radius. Opanujesz różne metody przechwytywania ruchu sieciowego i gromadzenia interesujących Cię informacji.
