RE: Penetration Whitepapers

["Technoboy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>]

For 'real life example' I would also recommand the following books:

Addison Wesley - Web Hacking Attacks and Defence [ISBM:0201761769]
Prentice Hall PTR - IT Security: Risking the Corporation [ISBN:013101112]

The Prentice book might be exactly what you are looking for.

Hope it help,
