Learn to use Python for ethical hacking and penetration testing.

Assume your target is running unpatched Windows XP, Anti-Virus is disabled, the firewall is turned off, IPS is not in place then you may (or not) get into a system! Does that sound like a real-world penetration test for you?

If you have ever attended an ethical hacking course that teaches you how to use some tools and how to click on some buttons, then you probably already know that being an advanced hacker needs more knowledge than clicking a few buttons as most of these tools will fail in a real-world scenario.

Whether you get bored from theory and basic courses which repeat the same tools and techniques over and over again and fail to teach you how to hack into even insecure systems, or you want to push your skills from beginner to the next level, then you have come to the right place!

There are quite a lot of people who call themselves hackers but, few have the solid skills to fit the definition, when other's tools fail, writing your own makes you a true hacker.

From 0 to 1: Machine Learning, NLP & Python-Cut to the Chase (Video)

Loonycorn

ISBN 13: 9781788624329 Packt Publishing Course Length: 19 hours 15 minutes (September 2017)

Video Overview:

A down-to-earth, shy but confident take on machine learning techniques that you can put to work today.

This course is very visual: most of the techniques are explained with the help of animations to help you understand better. This course is practical as well: There are hundreds of lines of source code with comments that can be used directly to implement natural language processing and machine learning for text summarization, text classification in Python. The course is also quirky. The examples are irreverent. Lots of little touches: repetition, zooming out so we remember the big picture, active learning with plenty of quizzes. There’s also a peppy soundtrack, and art - all shown by studies to improve cognition and recall.

Beginning Python (Video)

William Fiset

ISBN: 9781786468994

Course Length: 4 hours and 20 minutes, April 2016, Packt Publishing

This course assumes no programming experience and slowly builds the tools you need to take on larger challenges. Once this is done, dive into the fundamentals of Python programming with variables, numbers, strings, and so on. You'll learn to make decisions on your programs with conditional statements and discover that Python has the ability to iterate over the items of any sequence such as a list or a string with loops.

You will see how functions play a major role to provide a high degree of code reusing. Along with the built-in functions, you will be able to build your own functions as well. When you've done all this, you'll be ready to create modules in Python all by yourself. Finally, you'll enhance your skills by performing some very interesting manipulations on images.

What You Will Learn:

The viewer will know the basics of what programming languages are, but won’t need any knowledge of Python. Nor will the need any actual hands-on experience in a specific language.
