Penetration Testing BooksHere are a few books that I’ve found useful in my penetration testing career that I would highly recommend to anyone new to this area. At some point I will get round to writing up a proper review for each book. I have purchased many other penetration testing books however these are are the ones I go back to time after time. Like a lot of technical IT books I use these more as a reference guide than as a cover to cover sit down and read type book.
