Written by an expert in Computer Science and Information Security with ten years of experience in his field at the time of writing, The Hacker Ethos was specifically designed to be put in the hands of the beginner-level hacker, IT professional, and hopeful IT security researcher. This book covers the fundamental concepts of computer science and introduces the core knowledge that is required by all security professionals in the IT industry.

The primary goal of the book is to instill what is known as the "Hacker Ethic" into the reader, a philosophy based on the ideal of free information, knowledge, and speech. Its very foundation is the principle of what it means to be a true hacker, an expert in computers at the most primal level, ready to explore new concepts and techniques without ever losing the hunger for knowledge. The reader is encouraged to understand that Hacking is not easy, not is it a singular concept. It encompasses a vast library, covering every field of technology that includes programming, exploitation, web security and design, application security, viruses and malware, networking, wireless technology, telecommunication, phone technology, cellular technology, robotics, and everything that can be classified under the school of computing. Hackers are jacks of all trades, masters of none, but always striving to become so.
