""It's a great book to get people started, has examples to walk through, and includes more advanced topics for experienced users."" —Dark Reading ""Perfect for someone who is just starting out in security. This book has the honor of being named “the best guide to the Metasploit framework” by Metasploit founder H.D. Moore himself. Not only does the book provide a great crash course into using the powerful Metasploit framework, but it’s also useful for doing vulnerability research."" —Britt Kemp, Bishop Fox Labs
