Hello, everyone welcomes to worm in wire today we are going to discuss my favorite hacking tools which I used to perform hacking attacks.
1 – Metasploit
The tool that turned hacking into a commodity when it was released in 2003, the Metasploit Framework made cracking known vulnerabilities as easy as point and click. Although sold as (and used by white hats) as a penetration testing tool, Metasploit’s free version is still where most neophyte hackers cut their teeth. With downloadable modules allowing any combination of exploit and executable payload, all freely available, hackers have instant access to any system showing one of nearly 2000 cataloged vulnerabilities. Sophisticated anti-forensic and stealth tools make the package complete.
Nmap, or Network Mapper, is 20 years old, but remains one of the most flexible, powerful, and useful tools in the network security analysts toolkit. Nmap can bounce TCP and UDP packets around your network like a pinball wizard, identifying hosts, scanning for open ports, and slicing open misconfigured firewalls to show you what devices are open for business on your network… whether you put them there or someone else did. Nmap has been around so long that it has collected a constellation of helper tools such as the Zenmap GUI, Ncat debugging tool, and Nping packet generator.
3 – OpenSSH
OpenSSH is a suite of low-level tools that rights many of the wrongs built into the original network-level utilities in most Internet operating systems. Created as an integral part of the bulletproof OpenBSD UNIX implementation, OpenSSH was useful enough and solid enough that it was quickly adopted by other UNIX forks and made available as portable packages for other operating systems. The encryption and tunneling capabilities of the OpenSSH utilities are taken for granted by most users, but security professionals need to know how to build secure systems on top of reliable OpenSSH tools.
4 – Wireshark
Wireshark is the de facto standard in network protocol analysis tools. It allows deep inspection and analysis of packets from hundreds of different protocols, from the ubiquitous TCP to the exotic CSLIP. With built-in decryption support for many encrypted protocols and powerful filtering and display capabilities, Wireshark can help you dive deep in current activity on your network and expose nefariously crafted attacks in real time.
5 – Nessus
Nessus is the world’s most popular vulnerability scanner, a battle-scarred champion that has held that throne for decades even as new challengers have crowded the arena in recent years. Automated compliance scans can handle everything from password auditing to patch-level compliance across your network, with reports that immediately draw attention to open vulnerabilities. Nessus can integrate with Nmap to take advantage of advanced port-scanning capabilities and with other management tools to form an integral part of your network security system.
