You're up late, banging away at your keyboard. You find the hole you were looking for. Now you just find the right directory, copy a couple files, back right out of the system, and erase your tracks. Within 15 minutes of finding a back door into the network, you've downloaded transaction data for all credit card transactions within the last two years. You'd think credit card processing companies would be more secure than that.The FBI should be busting down your door any minute now. But they won't. You print out your keystroke logger info. You make a phone call. "I got in." They don’t believe it. But when you deliver the keystroke log the next day, they’re floored. They cut you a check, and offer you an even bigger contract to help them fix the hole.Do things that should get you arrested – but get paid instead. Ethical Hacking is so cool.
In these times of cheap storage and increased processing power and network traffic, asking a question to “the log” becomes more and more similar to executing a data-mining query. Most of the times “the log” does contain the answers you are looking for, but they’re buried under countless useless entries, and scattered across countless, heterogeneous log files; as Jake Babbin, the lead author of this book, elegantly puts it, the answers you are looking for are patterns in chaos. And the news is that someone has to find those patterns. And it might be you. The purpose of this book is to show you exactly how to do that, tackling at the same time all the various problems pertinent to log generation, storage, processing, and reporting.
Whether or not you are the one charged with asking questions to “the log,” after reading this book, you will agree that finding the patterns in chaos is actually not as daunting as you would have believed, and that creative solutions like the ones adopted by Jake will go a long way in making your job—and your quest—easier.
