Penetration Testing Azure for Ethical Hackers

Simulate real-world attacks using tactics techniques and procedures that adversaries use during cloud breachesKey Features://Understand the different Azure attack techniques and methodologies used by hackersFind out how you can ensure end-to-end cybersecurity in the Azure ecosystemDiscover various tools and techniques to perform successful penetration tests on your Azure infrastructurebr>/Book Description://Security professionals working with Azure will be able to put their knowledge to work with this practical guide to penetration testing. The book provides a hands-on approach to exploring Azure penetration testing methodologies that will help you get up and running in no time with the help of a variety of real-world examples scripts and ready-to-use source code./br>/As you learn about the Microsoft Azure platform and understand how hackers can attack resources hosted in the Azure cloud you'll find out how to protect your environment by identifying vulnerabilities along with extending your pentesting tools and capabilities. This book starts by taking you through the prerequisites for pentesting Azure and shows you how to set up a pentesting lab. You'll then simulate attacks on Azure assets such as web applications and virtual machines from anonymous and authenticated perspectives. Finally you'll learn about the opportunities for privilege escalation in Azure tenants and ways in which an attacker can create persistent access to an environment./br>/By the end of this book you'll be able to leverage your ethical hacking skills to identify and implement different tools and techniques to perform successful penetration tests on your own Azure infrastructure./br>/What You Will Learn://Identify how administrators misconfigure Azure services leaving them open to exploitationUnderstand how to detect cloud infrastructure service and application misconfigurationsExplore processes and techniques for exploiting common Azure security issuesUse on-premises networks to pivot and escalate access within AzureDiagnose gaps and weaknesses in Azure security implementationsUnderstand how attackers can escalate privileges in Azure ADbr>/Who this book is for://This book is for new and experienced infosec enthusiasts who want to learn how to simulate real-world Azure attacks using tactics techniques and procedures (TTPs) that adversaries use in cloud breaches. Any technology professional working with the Azure platform (including Azure administrators developers and DevOps engineers) interested in learning how attackers exploit vulnerabilities in Azure hosted infrastructure applications and services will find this book useful./
