RTFM: Red Team Field Manual v2

Amazing to have for either beginners or pros provides everything in a clear prompts and format easy to understand and use when needed has lots of info on windows small section for Mac OS and small/medium section for Linux and tools in between all of it

A handy reference. Makes people think I'm handing out communist propoganda until they take a closer look. A good little red book with plenty of handy info, but has led to some funny midunderstandings due to the design

I have the first version of RTFM, and I like this much more. The format makes it much easier to read, and I appreciate everything the authors did to organize the content. This is a great resource for anyone in a red team role, but it’s equally as good—if not better—for folks on the blue side to use as a reference guide for detection engineering. 10/10, would recommend!

Obviously, you get a reference manual for reference. Old one was good, but a slog to find anything. V2 has a much better table of contents and index, which makes a huge difference. I got the book on Kindle and paperback because there are different conveniences to both.

Let me be honest, there is nothing here you can’t find with a quick Google search. But I personally like having things organized and easy to look up in paper form (I am a notes person). So if you need something as a reference to keep near you this is a great book to have. It is small and light, easy to throw in you laptop bag.

I like this book short and to the point, I learned some new commands and file paths for Windows. Caveat, research what the commands are if you dont know. I got flagged as a malicious user running dsquery commands on my pc, I didnt realize it was querying the DC, until I read more into it. Kind of amazed at the amount of information you can get from a un-elevated cmd prompt, but good to know IDS/IPS still pick up on that traffic.

Keep the updates coming. A great reference for sure.

From reconnaissance to exploitation there's a lot in here that's valuable for computer people of any level. Give it a read or a skim at least.

Très bon livre

Great book to have while on tests and need a quick search.

Nice collection of cheat sheets to take along keep next to your keyboard.
