From this book you will not learn how to hack banks - nothing illegal will be described here. We do not want our readers or anyone else to have any problems because of our book.

We will talk about the basic principles of hacking websites (and so that theory does not diverge from practice, we will consider real example of hacking); a separate chapter will be devoted to the hijacking of a mailbox (we will show how a mailbox is hacked - various methods will be considered).

You will learn: how anonymous communication on the network works through email and all kinds of instant messengers; how to anonymously visit websites, how to create an anonymous mailbox and which messenger allows you to register without being tied to a phone number.

The most popular hacker tools will be considered - Kali Linux, which contains several hundred (more than 600) tools aimed at various information security tasks; and a tool for searching for vulnerabilities and hacking information systems - Metasploit.

A separate chapter is devoted to password hacking. We will mainly be cracking Windows account password and will look at how you can crack EFS encryption and BitLocker encrypted drive. We will also look at how a WiFi password is cracked.

Most tasks will not require any special knowledge other than basic computer skills. And for those who want to master more “serious” techniques, they will need knowledge of the basics of programming.
