My First Book - Mobile Application Penetration Testing
As usual, my weekend partying ended on Sunday evening and when i wake up the following morning, i see a message in my inbox "Congratulations Vijay Kumar Velu - your first book has been published by packtpub :)"... It's like, Woah!that was too quick!
What is this book about?
The book is all about the basic and intermediate skills that are required for any mobile application developers/testers and the beginners (Students/Enthusiasts) for Android and iOS application Security fundamentals. Highlight is, on setting up your own Mobile pen-testing lab within your windows workstation -playing with emulators, simulators and real devices.
What is this book not about?
This book does not teach anything about using any particular distribution, spying, malware advancement and cell phone network sniffing.
Why did i write it?
The motivation is - Being in cyber security for 10 years now, what did i contribute to the community? what do i have? how can it help people? Am i serving the purpose?
Art of penetration testing is not anything specific to tools and usage. Its about using the right tool and making the tools to think the way you think. So I thought it would be good to go ahead and share my knowledge through a book.
Who will be beneficial?
The book will be beneficial for those who are testers, developers, QA'ers, Threat modeling professionals, Requirements gatherers, and the web app testers who aspire to quickly learn mobile applications security(Android and iOS platform).
How do i feel?
Well... Whats the next thing I need to be working on?!
Not to forget - Joy of Giving
I will ensure 50% of the Royalty that I earn will be sent to the unaffordable kids for their education and I know how it works :)
