All,

Nmap amongst many other hacking tools is being featured in a new cyber
thriller called Z4CK.

Z4CK, meaning Zaurus-ACK, in technical terms lies somewhere between films
such as 'The Net' and the excellent technical novel 'Stealing the
Continent'.

Duncan Steele has nowhere to run when he creates Z4CK, the magic bullet
that allows him to bypass any network security.  Government agencies are
desperate to obtain this new security tool. Framed for a murder he didn't
commit, Duncan must use all his skills to survive and clear his name.

Z4CK involves a murder story based in Scotland intertwined with network
and wireless hacking, social engineering, circumventing firewalls, and
dumpster diving.  The book mentions some of our favourite tools including
Nmap, Nessus,and Hydra.

The novel was written over the space of a year, and the good thing is its
available in PDF, Palm Doc and Plucker formats for $3, and in paperback
for £7.50.   Even better, the first 6 chapters are completely free.   To
get more information, and the free downloads head over to

Cheers,

Kev
