Re: Penetration Testing Literature

[Jerome Athias <jerome.athias () free fr>]

Hi,

I don't know your age and back skills.
But I would recommend to start from the beginning (you'll not loose your
time).
So I would recommend to read some Bruce Schneier and William Stallings
books if not already done, to fortify your background.

Enjoy & Happy Hacking!
