A Note on Ethics
Our goal in writing this book is to help you to improve your skills as a penetration tester. As a penetration tester, you will be bypassing security measures; that’s simply part of the job. When you do, keep the following in mind:
Don’t be malicious.
Don’t be stupid.
Don’t attack targets without written permission.
Consider the consequences of your actions.
If you do things illegally, you can be caught and put in jail!
Neither the authors of this book nor No Starch Press, its publisher, condones or encourages the misuse of the penetration testing techniques discussed herein. Our goal is to make you smarter, not to help you to get into trouble, because we won’t be there to get you out.
