Hi,
i'm a student of Applied Computer Science and currently
preparing for a student research project on "Systematic
Penetration Testing".
Right now i'm searching for literature.

Currently i plan to read the following books:

- Marc Ruef  - Die Kunst des Penetration Testing
- Thomas Wilhelm - Professional Penetration Testing:
Creating and Operating a Formal Hacking Lab
- Peter B. Kraft - Network Hacking: Professionelle
Angriffs- und Verteidigungstechniken
- Chris Hurley - Penetration Tester's Open Source Toolkit,
Second Edition

What do you think? What books would you recommend to read?

Best Regards
Sebastian
