Descripción
Sumario:This course explores Python for security testing through hands-on projects. Starting with foundational concepts like creating socket connections, participants progress to advanced topics such as port scanning and banner grabbing. Each episode builds on the previous one, ensuring a cohesive learning experience that enhances understanding of both Python and cybersecurity principles. Learners will tackle complex security testing techniques, including constructing a brute force SSH attack program to identify weak passwords. The packet sniffing modules offer in-depth knowledge on capturing and analyzing network data, crucial for monitoring and securing network communications. These projects simulate real-world scenarios, providing practical skills applicable to professional environments. By the end of the course, participants will have developed a suite of Python-based security tools. The final project, a comprehensive packet sniffer, integrates all learned skills into a robust tool for network security analysis. Ideal for those with a basic understanding of Python, this course aims to expand capabilities in cybersecurity. With detailed explanations and hands-on practice, participants will gain valuable skills to enhance their security testing toolkit.
