Overview of this book

The industrial cybersecurity domain has grown significantly in recent years. To completely secure critical infrastructure, red teams must be employed to continuously test and exploit the security integrity of a company's people, processes, and products. This is a unique pentesting book, which takes a different approach by helping you gain hands-on experience with equipment that you’ll come across in the field. This will enable you to understand how industrial equipment interacts and operates within an operational environment. You'll start by getting to grips with the basics of industrial processes, and then see how to create and break the process, along with gathering open-source intel to create a threat landscape for your potential customer. As you advance, you'll find out how to install and utilize offensive techniques used by professional hackers. Throughout the book, you'll explore industrial equipment, port and service discovery, pivoting, and much more, before finally launching attacks against systems in an industrial network. By the end of this penetration testing book, you'll not only understand how to analyze and navigate the intricacies of an industrial control system (ICS), but you'll also have developed essential offensive and defensive skills to proactively protect industrial networks from modern cyberattacks.

Who this book is for

This book started out as purely a manual for industrial pentesting and in doing so it was aimed at people who wanted learn about industrial pentesting; however, it grew into more of a convergence effort because I had numerous people ask me about getting into the Operational Technology (OT) security space, I figured that I would try and cover topics that addressed both sides of the convergence the OT and IT personas. IT security personnel who want a hands-on introduction to industrial pentesting will learn about the automation and controls aspect of industrial pentesting, while automation/control engineers who want to better understand their potential threat landscape will learn more about the IT networking aspects.
