Practical Pentest Commands
A Field Manual for Ethical Hacking and Red Team Ops
This isn’t theory. It’s not another 500-page explanation marathon. It’s a command arsenal — built for moments when time is limited, pressure is high, and your brain decides to betray you.
Designed for penetration testers, red teamers, and security professionals who need fast recall during exams, CTFs, and real-world engagements.
What This Book Is
- A command-first pentesting field manual
- Organized to mirror real attack flow
- Built for speed, clarity, and execution
- Linux & Windows focused
- Exam-oriented without being exam-only
What It Is Not
- No long vulnerability theory dumps
- No recycled blog-level explanations
- No hand-holding
What You’ll Find Inside
- Scanning & enumeration commands that actually get used
- Exploitation and payload delivery snippets
- Privilege escalation workflows (Windows & Linux)
- Post-exploitation and lateral movement essentials
- Metasploit, tunneling, firewall bypass, file transfer techniques
- Binary exploitation, fuzzing, and SysInternals essentials
Think of it as a tactical cheat sheet with just enough context — designed to act as your second brain when stress hits.
Who This Book Is For
- Penetration testers and red team operators
- Security engineers preparing for hands-on exams
- CTF players who want speed over verbosity
- Students transitioning from theory to execution
If you already work in security, this should feel familiar — like opening a terminal that’s already configured exactly how you like it.
