Top 10 Most Popular Ethical Hacking Tools (2019 Ranking)

     Top 10 powerful Hacking  Tools in 2019.       

If hacking is performed to identify the potential threats to a computer or network then it will be an ethical hacking.

Ethical hacking is also called penetration testing, intrusion testing, and red teaming.

Hacking is the process of gaining access to a computer system with the intention of fraud, data stealing, and privacy invasion etc., by identifying its weaknesses.

Ethical Hackers:

A person who performs the hacking activities is called a hacker.

There are six types of hackers:

• The Ethical Hacker (White hat)
• Cracker
• Grey hat
• Script kiddies
• Hacktivist
• Phreaker

A security professional who uses his/her hacking skills for defensive purposes is called an ethical hacker. To strengthen the security, ethical hackers use their skills to find vulnerabilities, document them, and suggest the ways to rectify them.

Companies that provide online services or those which are connected to the internet, must perform penetration testing by ethical hackers. Penetration testing is another name of ethical hacking. It can be performed manually or through an automation tool.

Ethical hackers work as an information security expert. They try to break the security of a computer system, network, or applications. They identify the weak points and based on that, they give advice or suggestions to strengthen the security.

Programming languages that are used for hacking include PHP, SQL, Python, Ruby, Bash, Perl, C, C++, Java, VBScript, Visual Basic, C Sharp, JavaScript, and HTML.

Few Hacking Certifications include:

1. CEH
2. GIAC
3. OSCP
4. CREST

Breaking Down Business Email Compromise

What is a Business Email Compromise and why should cyber security professionals care?

Author: Keith Roberts, Senior Information Security Analyst

The FBI categorizes business email compromise (BEC) scams into three specific brands. While there are certainly hybrid forms, for this article we are focusing on the big three. Today we're going to dive into the "Account Compromise" BEC attack.

Account compromise

Company A has an employee email account compromised. Fake invoices are sent to company B, which is in a business relationship with Company A. The invoices will fool all but the savviest of finance team members. Prevention should include process review from the finance team.

The "fake invoice" scam (otherwise known as Vendor Email Compromise)

Fraudsters research a target organization. They send the target organization an invoice requesting payment from a company that the target does business with. Though not as efficient as the next tactic, it is much easier to pull off

CEO fraud

Criminals spoof an organization's domain and send emails appearing to originate from the CEO to high risk employees (finance, HR, executives), usually asking for a "wire transfer," though this attack is not limited to only wire transfer requests.

The Four Phases of Account Compromise Attacks

Phase 1– Initial Compromise

 I've seen many Account Compromise BEC attacks in the past five years through industry peers and personal experience. Some were very well crafted and were caught only by well-trained eyes, others poorly written and containing many clues to their illegitimacy – these unfortunately do succeed. Almost all these BEC attacks started with a simple landing page.

Figure 1: Spoofed 0365 Login Page

An employee at company A was phished with a credential harvesting email. The recipient entered their credentials and now the criminal has control of that email account. The preparation can take months while the fraudster gathers intelligence on the target using open source gathering from social media sites and online searching. This opening phase is arguably the most important in the hacker's attack – underpreparation comes with the risk of a failed operation.

This phish would have been one of two types:

• Specifically crafted with research into the targets company, colleagues and business partners of the victim.
• Opportunistic mass phish, where the attacker casts a wide net hoping for a bite.

Phase 2 of the Attack – Waiting

Now the hacker sits and waits, observing the email traffic coming in and out of the account. They may have set an auto forward rule into the victim's email – this way they can slip into an email thread without the victim knowing, collecting information such as:

• Invoices, payment slips
• Employee names and contact information
• Names of colleagues in the victim(s) department
• Payment cadence
• Email tone and punctuation between company representatives

The perpetrator is gathering intelligence and waiting for the perfect time to execute the next phase of the attack. The attacker needs to understand the victim organizations entire workflow. Payment schedules are noted here because if the fraudster send an invoice before one is due, that would draw unwanted attention to the attack. The goal here is to observe transactions, conversations, and exchanges taking place within that compromised email account. This is crucial for when the fake email is created to the point of being undetectable.

Phase 3 of the Attack – The Switch

The third phase will involve the criminal sending an email from company A's compromised email account to a finance employee at company B. If they're good at what they do, the fake invoice will be near perfect, with minor changes including address, bank account, routing number and phone number. The hacker could have been sitting on communications from company B if they were auto forwarded to his/her account. So, the subject line could read something like "URGENT: LATE PAYMENT" or "PAYMENT NOT RECEIVED" and finally "NOTICE OF BANK CHANGE". This tactic is intended for the recipient to elicit an emotional response.

Figure 2:Original Invoice on the Left – Altered Invoice on the Right

Phase 4 of the Attack – Financial Fraud

Urgency can leave the recipient in a panicked state and they don't always see the clear mistakes in the email body and on the invoice. This is where the company B employee makes a payment to the criminal's bank account. Though things did not add up, the proper verifications were not checked, and the payment was made. This can often leave both companies involved in the fraud in a financial and potentially legal bind, but more on that later.

Collection Of Pcap Files From Malware Analysis

Update: Feb 19. 2015

We have been adding pcaps to the collection so remember to check out the folder ( Pcap collection) for the recent pcaps.

I had a project to test some malicious and exploit pcaps and collected a lot of them (almost 1000) from various public sources. You can see them in the PUBLIC folder. The credits go to the authors of the pcaps listed in the name of each file. Please visit their blogs and sites to see more information about the pcaps, see their recent posts, and send them thanks. The public pcaps have no passwords on them.




Update:Dec 13. 2014 

Despite rare updates of this post, we have been adding pcaps to the collection so remember to check out the folder ( Pcap collection (New link)) for the recent pcaps!

Update:Dec 31. 2013 - added new pcaps

I did some spring cleaning yesterday and came up with these malware and exploit pcaps. Such pcaps are very useful for IDS and signature testing and development, general education, and malware identification. While there are some online public sandboxes offering pcaps for download like Cuckoo or Anubis but  looking for them is a tedious task and you cannot be totally sure the pcap is for the malware family supposedly analysed - in other words, if the sandbox says it is Zeus does not necessarily mean that it is.

I found some good pcap repositories here (http://www.netresec.com/?page=PcapFiles) but there are very few pcaps from malware.

These are from identified and verified (to the best of my knowledge and belief - email me if you find errors) malware samples.

All of them show the first stage with the initial callback and most have the DNS requests as well. A few pcaps show extended malware runs (e.g. purplehaze pcap is over 500mb).
Most pcaps are mine, a few are from online sandboxes, and one is borrowed from malware.dontneedcoffee.com. That said, I can probably find the corresponding samples for all that have MD5 listed if you really need them. Search contagio, some are posted with the samples.

Each file has the following naming convention:
BIN [RTF, PDF] - the filetype of the dropper used, malware family name, MD5, and year+month of the malware analysis.

I will be adding more pcaps in the future. Please donate your pcaps from identified samples, I am sure many of you have.

Thank you

Download

Download all together or separately.

All pcaps archives have the same password (same scheme), email me if you need it. I tried posting it without any passwords and pass infected but they get flagged as malware. Modern AV rips though zips and zips with the pass 'infected' with ease.

CEH Practical: Information-Gathering Methodology

 

Information gathering can be broken into seven logical steps. Footprinting is performed during the first two steps of unearthing initial information and locating the network range.

Footprinting

Footprinting is defined as the process of establishing a scenario or creating a map of an organization's network and systems. Information gathering is also known as footprinting an organization. Footprinting is an important part of reconnaissance process which is typically used for collecting possible information about a targeted computer system or network. Active and Passive both could be Footprinting. The example of passive footprinting is assessment of a company's website, whereas attempting to gain access to sensitive information through social engineering is an example of active information gathering. Basically footprinting is the beginning step of hacker to get hacked someone because having information about targeted computer system is the main aspect of hacking. If you have an information about individual you wanna hack so you can easily hacked that individual. The basic purpose of information gathering is at least decide what type of attacks will be more suitable for the target. Here are some of the pieces of information to be gathered about a target
during footprinting:

• Domain name
• Network blocks
• Network services and applications
• System architecture
• Intrusion detection system
• Authentication mechanisms
• Specific IP addresses
• Access control mechanisms
• Phone numbers
• Contact addresses

Once this information is assemble, it can give a hacker better perception into the organization, where important information is stored, and how it can be accessed.

Footprinting Tools 

Footprinting can be done using hacking tools, either applications or websites, which allow the hacker to locate information passively. By using these footprinting tools, a hacker can gain some basic information on, or "footprint," the target. By first footprinting the target, a hacker can eliminate tools that will not work against the target systems or network. For example, if a graphics design firm uses all Macintosh computers, then all hacking software that targets Windows systems can be eliminated. Footprinting not only speeds up the hacking process by eliminating certain tool sets but also minimizes the chance of detection as fewer hacking attempts can be made by using the right tool for the job. Some of the common tools used for footprinting and information gathering are as follows:

• Domain name lookup
• Whois
• NSlookup
• Sam Spade

Before we discuss these tools, keep in mind that open source information can also yield a wealth of information about a target, such as phone numbers and addresses. Performing Whois requests, searching domain name system (DNS) tables, and using other lookup web tools are forms of open source footprinting. Most of this information is fairly easy to get and legal to obtain.

Footprinting a Target 

Footprinting is part of the preparatory pre-attack phase and involves accumulating data regarding a target's environment and architecture, usually for the purpose of finding ways to intrude into that environment. Footprinting can reveal system vulnerabilities and identify the ease with which they can be exploited. This is the easiest way for hackers to gather information about computer systems and the companies they belong to. The purpose of this preparatory phase is to learn as much as you can about a system, its remote access capabilities, its ports and services, and any specific aspects of its security.

DNS Enumeration

DNS enumeration is the process of locating all the DNS servers and their corresponding records for an organization. A company may have both internal and external DNS servers that can yield information such as usernames, computer names, and IP addresses of potential target systems.

NSlookup and DNSstuff

One powerful tool you should be familiar with is NSlookup (see Figure 2.2). This tool queries DNS servers for record information. It's included in Unix, Linux, and Windows operating systems. Hacking tools such as Sam Spade also include NSlookup tools. Building on the information gathered from Whois, you can use NSlookup to find additional IP addresses for servers and other hosts. Using the authoritative name server information from Whois ( AUTH1.NS.NYI.NET ), you can discover the IP address of the mail server.

Syntax

nslookup www.sitename.com

nslookup www.usociety4.com

Performing DNS Lookup

This search reveals all the alias records for www.google.com and the IP address of the web server. You can even discover all the name servers and associated IP addresses.

Understanding Whois and ARIN Lookups

Whois evolved from the Unix operating system, but it can now be found in many operating systems as well as in hacking toolkits and on the Internet. This tool identifies who has registered domain names used for email or websites. A uniform resource locator (URL), such as www.Microsoft.com , contains the domain name ( Microsoft.com ) and a hostname or alias ( www ).
The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) requires registration of domain names to ensure that only a single company uses a specific domain name. The Whois tool queries the registration database to retrieve contact information about the individual or organization that holds a domain registration.

Using Whois

• Go to the DNSStuff.com website and scroll down to the free tools at the bottom of the page.
• Enter your target company URL in the WHOIS Lookup field and click the WHOIS button.
• Examine the results and determine the following:
  
  • Registered address
  • Technical and DNS contacts
  • Contact email
  • Contact phone number
  • Expiration date

• Visit the company website and see if the contact information from WHOIS matches up to any contact names, addresses, and email addresses listed on the website.

• If so, use Google to search on the employee names or email addresses. You can learn the email naming convention used by the organization, and whether there is any information that should not be publicly available.

Syntax

whois sitename.com
whois usociety4.com

Networking | Routing And Switching | Tutorial 4 | 2018

Welcome to my 4th new tutorial of the series of networking. In this blog you'll the content about network switches. You'll learn about how to make a communication successful and secure in the same network (LAN) by using STP. As Spanning tree protocol (STP) we used in multi-switched networks. Why we use this protocol in multi-switched network etc.

What is Switch? 

A switch is an intelligent device used to connect multiple devices within the same network. The intelligence of is that it requires Media Access Control (MAC) address for communication and doesn't allow broadcast.  Let's understand the whole thing by a little example, consider there is a network having 3 end devices name Device-A, Device-B,Device-C connected with each other respectively with the help of switch. When a Device-A sends data to Device-C so that data will only forwarded by switch to Device-C not to Device-B.

What is Media Access Control (MAC) address?

A Media Access Control (MAC) address is 48-bit unique physical address given to network interface controller (NIC) or network adapter, for communication within the same network which is given by its manufacturer. It is made up of hexadecimal numbers like a1:b1:cc:ac:2e:f1.

What is STP?

STP stands for Spanning tree protocol which is basically used in bridge and switches to prevent loops when you have a redundant links in the Ethernet networks. If the loop is present in the Ethernet network so the whole network will suffer because there will MAC instability in the MAC table,  duplicate frames generation and so on. Let's move to the video for further detail.
