Network Security Assessment - 2nd edition

[Chris McNab <chris.mcnab () trustmatta com>]

Dear all,

So over christmas and into the new year I'm putting together the 2nd 
edition of my Internet-based pentesting book, Network Security 
Assessment (http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/networksa/), which will be an 
update of the original, with obsolete information removed, and some new 
chapters, including exploit frameworks and web application assessment.

If you've read the 1st edition and have any comments or things that 
you'd like to see in the 2nd, please let me know so that I can add them 
in.. details of useful tools that aren't mentioned in the 1st edition 
would be good, along with any testing approaches or techniques that I 
didn't cover (particularly in regard to IPsec VPN, Citrix, Oracle, and 
other specific services that I cover in the book). Please no requests 
for 802.11 wireless hacking chapters, local network testing (sniffing, 
ARP spoofing, VLAN hacking), wardialling, etc. -- this book is for 
Internet-based testing only, and I hope it can become a reference manual 
for professional testers everywhere.

Thanks in advance,

Chris
