The Metasploit Framework is a powerful tool for discovering, exploiting, and sharing systemic vulnerabilities, but it can be challenging for first-time users. This updated second edition introduces modules and commands recently added to the Framework, as well as new chapters on the Cloud Lookup (and Bypass) module and attacking IoT or SCADA (industrial) systems using the Mobius client module. It covers modern pentesting techniques, including network reconnaissance and enumeration, the Metasploit Framework's conventions, interfaces, and module system, client-side attacks, wireless exploits, and targeted social-engineering attacks.
