A data breach is a major security incident, usually carried out by just hacking a simple network line. Increasing your network's security helps step up your defenses against cyber attacks. Meanwhile, Python is being used for increasingly advanced tasks, with the latest update introducing many new packages. This book focuses on leveraging these updated packages to build a secure network with the help of Python scripting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book covers topics from building a network to the different procedures you need to follow to secure it. You'll first be introduced to different packages and libraries, before moving on to different ways to build a network with the help of Python scripting. Later, you will learn how to check a network's vulnerability using Python security scripting, and understand how to check vulnerabilities in your network. As you progress through the chapters, you will also learn how to achieve endpoint protection by leveraging Python packages along with writing forensic scripts. By the end of this book, you will be able to get the most out of the Python language to build secure and robust networks that are resilient to attacks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWhat you will learn\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDevelop Python scripts for automating security and pentesting tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscover the Python standard library's main modules used for performing security-related tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutomate analytical tasks and the extraction of information from servers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplore processes for detecting and exploiting vulnerabilities in servers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse network software for Python programming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerform server scripting and port scanning with Python\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdentify vulnerabilities in web applications with Python\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse Python to extract metadata and forensics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho this book is for: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is ideal for network engineers, system administrators, or any security professional looking at tackling networking and security challenges.
