This book shows how to use C#'s set of core libraries to automate tedious yet important tasks like performing vulnerability scans, malware analysis, and incident response. Author Brandon Perry shows how with some help from Mono, you can write your own practical security tools that will run on Windows, Mac, Linux, and even mobile devices. The book starts with a crash course in C# and some of its advanced features before going on to look at how to create and automate security tools.
