There are so many books that are amazing, useful and/or interesting when it comes to offensive security! That said, I’ve put some of my favorites into a list.
These are not in any particular order but I’d suggest reading the Security+ Book first and going from there. Number 11 is a bonus since it doesn’t provide any technical information but is still very interesting (in my opinion)
I’ll probably make another post with even more essential books in the near future! Remember these are just a few! If I missed one you think should be included, comment below!
