About the Author
Stefan Umit Uygur
has been an IT System and Security engineer for 14 years. He
is an extremely motivated open source software evangelist with a passion for sharing
knowledge and working in a community environment. He is highly experienced in
Penetration Testing and Vulnerability Analysis, Management, and Assessment. He has
been involved in many open source software projects, for example BackBox, where
he is part of the core team. He has helped to promote the free software culture around
the world by participating and organizing international conferences. He significantly
contributes to shedding the false and negative perceptions around hacking and hackers
by promoting the hacker world in a positive light. He explains in detail the real world
of hacking, hackers' motivations, and their philosophy, ethics, and freedom. These
activities are promoted mainly through national and international magazines, and in
particular, during the conferences that he participates. Along with his professional
activities, he has contributed to the
Linux
magazine, the
PenTest
magazine, and a few
other small, periodic, technical publications.
However, his main passion is continuous collaboration with the community as he
believes in the community more than anything else. He strongly feels that knowledge
shouldn't be owned by a few people, but should be the heritage of the entire collective.
He is always grateful to the community for the skills and the knowledge he possesses.
One of the definitions he gives to the community is that it is the real school and
university where one truly learns.
I would like to thank my ladybird who helped me out to proofread
this entire book. Without her help, I wouldn't have been able to
complete this publication in a reasonable timeframe.
