Score Your Weaknesses Before Hackers Do: Scan, Rate & Prioritise Your Risks - Understand CVE & CVSS (Ethical Hacking & Cyber Security Series, Book 5) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

You have found your network's open doors and read its nameplates. Again and again, one thing kept appearing: old, tired locks and out-of-date software. This book answers the natural next question - exactly how weak is each one, and which must you mend first?

In Book 5 of the friendly aiGodess Cyber Academy series - for everyone 9 to 90, no computer degree needed - Joshi ji calls in a tireless building-safety inspector who walks your OWN machine, tests every weak lock, and gives each an honest 0-to-10 safety-rating. All on your own safe practice lab, never a stranger's.

You will learn, step by step, to:

• Understand what a vulnerability really is - and why finding one is NOT being hacked.
• Run a real inspection with nmap --script vuln (and meet the free scanners OpenVAS and Nessus).
• Read a finding that names a CVE, and look up its CVSS score on the public NVD register.
• Check whether a ready exploit exists with searchsploit, and verify findings (beware false positives).
• Triage by danger, mend the dangerous first (usually by simply patching), and inspect again.

Every command is explained in plain words beside its real syntax, with a Guided Practice for each, a capstone Workshop, an install appendix, and a printable cheat-sheet. Lab-only, written-permission-only. Become the calm safety-inspector of your own digital home.
