Offers readers a structured and hands-on introduction to the use of Python in the context of computer security. Using the MITRE ATT&CK frameworks as a set of guideposts, Poston explores the lifecycle of a cyberattack and how Python code can be used to overcome critical challenges and threats at each stage of the attack process. Each chapter includes discussions of several techniques and sub-techniques that could be used to achieve an attacker's objectives in any of these use cases. A resource for anyone with a professional or personal interest in cybersecurity, this volume provides in-depth information about a wide variety of attacks and effective, Python-based defenses against them. -- Provided by publisher.
