Linux and Unix Shell Pocket Programmer

Linux and Unix Shell Pocket Programmer
By:"Richard Petersen"
Published on 2008 by Surfing Turtle Press

This book is designed to be a shell programmer's reference on Unix and Linux. It covers the commands, syntax, and operators for three major shells used in Unix and Linux; the Bourne Again shell (BASH), the TCSH shell, and the Z-shell. All are enhanced versions of their corresponding original Unix shells. The BASH shell is an advanced version of the Bourne shell, which includes most of the advanced features developed for the Unix Korn shell and C-shells. TCSH is an enhanced version of the C-shell that was originally developed for BSD versions of Unix. The Z-shell is an enhanced version of the Unix Korn shell. The Perl and GAWK shell scripting languages are also presented in detail, examining the use of variables, operators, and control structures to create complex shell programs. In addition the book covers supplementary features like the Make utility and man page formatting. The ebook version features hyper-linked overview, contents, index, tables, chapters, and Web addresses.

Published on 2014-10-24 by CRC Press

The rapid growth and development of Android-based devices has resulted in a wealth of sensitive information on mobile devices that offer minimal malware protection. This has created an immediate need for security professionals that understand how to best approach the subject of Android malware threats and analysis. In Android Malware and Analysis, Ken Dunham, renowned global malware expert and author, teams up with international experts to document the best tools and tactics available for analyzing Android malware. The book covers both methods of malware analysis: dynamic and static. This tactical and practical book shows you how to use to use dynamic malware analysis to check the behavior of an application/malware as it has been executed in the system. It also describes how you can apply static analysis to break apart the application/malware using reverse engineering tools and techniques to recreate the actual code and algorithms used. The book presents the insights of experts in the field, who have already sized up the best tools, tactics, and procedures for recognizing and analyzing Android malware threats quickly and effectively. You also get access to an online library of tools that supplies what you will need to begin your own analysis of Android malware threats. Tools available on the book’s site include updated information, tutorials, code, scripts, and author assistance. This is not a book on Android OS, fuzz testing, or social engineering. Instead, it is about the best ways to analyze and tear apart Android malware threats. After reading the book, you will be able to immediately implement the tools and tactics covered to identify and analyze the latest evolution of Android threats. Updated information, tutorials, a private forum, code, scripts, tools, and author assistance are available at AndroidRisk.com for first-time owners of the book.
