Overview

Offensive Go Programming: Building Ethical Hacking and Penetration Testing Tools in Go"" is your complete, hands-on guide to mastering the Go programming language for modern offensive security operations. Written for security professionals, penetration testers, red teamers, and advanced developers, this book bridges the gap between theoretical security concepts and practical, field-ready tool development. Starting from the fundamentals of structuring efficient Go code, you'll progress through designing modular offensive frameworks, crafting secure communication channels, managing multiple agents, and simulating full attack chains. You'll explore real-world offensive techniques: reconnaissance, exploitation, post-exploitation, persistence, lateral movement and implement them in Go with clean, reusable code. The book also covers advanced topics such as building your own command-and-control (C2) frameworks, integrating plugin-based offensive modules, automating complex attack workflows, and handling long-running operations. You'll gain the skills to integrate Go with popular offensive security utilities, create cross-platform payloads, and leverage both the Go standard library and powerful third-party packages for maximum efficiency. Ethical hacking principles, safe lab practices, compliance considerations, and responsible disclosure guidelines are woven throughout, ensuring you operate legally and responsibly while pushing technical boundaries. Whether you're looking to extend your penetration testing capabilities, develop robust internal security tools, or contribute to the open-source offensive security community, this book provides not just knowledge but working, production-ready Go code you can adapt to your own projects. Key Highlights: Practical, real-world offensive security tool development in Go Full coverage of agent management, secure comms, and attack automation Advanced C2 architecture design and modular plugin integration Safe, legal, and ethical hacking practices for professionals Extensive code samples, exercises, and lab-tested examples If you're serious about mastering Go for offensive security, this is your blueprint. Learn the techniques, write the tools, and elevate your capabilities-because in cybersecurity, the advantage goes to those who build faster, smarter, and more efficiently.
