In the realm of ethical hacking, Bayesian methods offer a powerful toolset for analyzing security risks and making informed decisions. "Bayesian Methods for Hackers" is a comprehensive guide that empowers you to harness the power of probability to elevate your hacking skills.

What are Bayesian Methods?

Bayesian methods are statistical techniques that update beliefs as new evidence emerges. Unlike frequentist statistics, which focus solely on probabilities based on repeated experiments, Bayesian methods incorporate prior knowledge and likelihoods to make inferences.
