Each tool is based on a programming language such as Perl, Python, or Ruby. If a penetration tester wants to extend, augment, or change the functionality of a tool to perform a test differently than the default configuration, the tester must know the basics of coding for the related programming language. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/129354/coding-for-penetration-testers-building-better-tools/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/129354/coding-for-penetration-testers-building-better-tools/ Mon, 03 Oct 2011 12:19:00 GMT James Crowley THE LATEST STRATEGIES FOR UNCOVERING TODAY'S MOST DEVASTATING ATTACKSThwart malicious network intrusion by using cutting-edge techniques for finding and fixing security flaws.

Building a Web Site for Dummies lightens things up with humor and makes the challenge of building a site far less daunting.This book doesn't zoom you right into coding HTML, although it covers the markup language quite well. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/93920/building-a-web-site-for-dummies/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/93920/building-a-web-site-for-dummies/ Mon, 31 Jan 2011 19:31:00 GMT James Crowley This is the second edition of John Zelle's Python Programming, updated for Python 3. This book is designed to be used as the primary textbook in a college-level first course in computing. It takes a fairly traditional approach, emphasizing problem solving, design, and programming as the core skills of computer science. However, these ideas are illustrated using a non-traditional language, namely Python. Although Python is used as the language, teaching Python is not the main point of this book. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/94263/python-programming-an-introduction-to-computer-science-2nd-edition/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/94263/python-programming-an-introduction-to-computer-science-2nd-edition/ Tue, 01 Feb 2011 14:51:00 GMT James Crowley "Invent Your Own Computer Games with Python" teaches you computer programming in the Python programming language. Each chapter gives you the complete source code for a new game and teaches the programming concepts from these examples. "Invent with Python" was written to be understandable by kids as young as 10 to 12 years old, although it is great for anyone of any age who has never programmed before. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/94266/invent-your-own-computer-games-with-python-2nd-edition/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/94266/invent-your-own-computer-games-with-python-2nd-edition/ Tue, 01 Feb 2011 15:09:00 GMT James Crowley Mark Pilgrim's Dive Into Python 3 is a hands-on guide to Python 3 (the latest version of the Python language) and its differences from Python 2. As in the original book, Dive Into Python, each chapter starts with a real, complete code sample, proceeds to pick it apart and explain the pieces, and then puts it all back together in a summary at the end. Dive Into Python 3 is a Python book for experienced programmers. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/79735/dive-into-python-3/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/79735/dive-into-python-3/ Sun, 31 Jan 2010 00:00:00 GMT James Crowley Ready to learn Python programming? Are you new to programming with Python? Do you need a solid introduction to the fundamental concepts? You've found it in PYTHON PROGRAMMING FOR THE ABSOLUTE BEGINNER, THIRD EDITION. As part of the “for the absolute beginner series” developed by computer science instructors exclusively for Course Technology PTR, this book will teach you the basics of Python programming through simple game creation. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/60465/python-programming-for-the-absolute-beginner/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/60465/python-programming-for-the-absolute-beginner/ Tue, 01 Dec 2009 00:00:00 GMT James Crowley The authors of Learning Python show you enough essentials of the Python scripting language to enable you to begin solving problems right away, then reveal more powerful aspects of the language one at a time. This approach is sure to appeal to programmers and system administrators who have urgent problems and a preference for learning by semi-guided experimentation. http://www.developerfusion.com/book/17200/learning-python/ http://www.developerfusion.com/book/17200/learning-python/ Fri, 02 Oct 2009 00:00:00 GMT James Crowley
