## Description

**Foreword by Avi Rubin. How does software break? How do attackers make software break on purpose? Why are firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and antivirus software not keeping out the bad guys? What tools can be used to break software? This book provides the answers. This book is studded with examples of real attacks, attack patterns, tools, and techniques used by bad guys to break software. If you want to protect your software from attack, you must first learn how real attacks are really carried out. Learn about: Why software exploit will continue to be a serious problem; When network security mechanisms do not work; Attack patterns; Reverse engineering; Classic attacks against server software; Surprising attacks against client software; Techniques for crafting malicious input; The technical details of buffer overflows; and Rootkits. This information needs to be understood and digested by security professionals so that they know the magnitude of the problem and they can begin to address it properly. Today, all developers should be security-minded. The knowledge here will arm you with a real understanding of the software security problem.

Review: Oldie but a Goodie - It’s an old (by Infosec standards) book. But it’s still relevant. I lost my original copy when we moved. Bought a new copy just recently to keep around as a reference. Worthwhile book.
Review: Don't let the black hat on the cover fool you... - This book is a great review of software security and deserves to be on any security professional's bookshelf. The chapter on Rootkits (Chapter 8) is well worth the price of the book. While the book isn't too long (at just over 400 pages) it does deliver in a concise, easy to read format that makes the book a rewarding read.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Oldie but a Goodie
*by I***K on January 14, 2022*

It’s an old (by Infosec standards) book. But it’s still relevant. I lost my original copy when we moved. Bought a new copy just recently to keep around as a reference. Worthwhile book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Don't let the black hat on the cover fool you...
*by A***. on June 9, 2008*

This book is a great review of software security and deserves to be on any security professional's bookshelf. The chapter on Rootkits (Chapter 8) is well worth the price of the book. While the book isn't too long (at just over 400 pages) it does deliver in a concise, easy to read format that makes the book a rewarding read.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book
*by R***Y on February 22, 2014*

I work in IT, for 22 years as a computer programmer ("software engineer") and now in IT Security as an Application Security Engineer (focusing on Web applications, thanks..) so this book is near and dear to me in both capacities. I highly recommend it. Highly technical, profoundly educational... relevant, intelligently written... just a great book. Buy it.
