Install and configure vsftpd on a linux server, enable write access, and use the ftp client to upload and download files via a simple client-server file transfer.
Identify an ftp service with Nmap and fingerprint the server and Ubuntu OS. Understand brute-force password attacks using wordlists.
Learn how SSH enables secure remote login to a computer via the terminal, install the open ssh server on Ubuntu, and connect from a client to execute commands.
Explore how nmap reveals ssh services on an Ubuntu server and how brute-force password attacks gain ssh access, highlighting the need to secure ssh credentials.
Explore how to share folders over a network using the SMB protocol, configure sharing and security on Windows and Linux, and access shared drives via smb://IP with user credentials.
Learn the SMB null session attack by using empty usernames and passwords to access shared folders, list files, and download or upload them, noting it works on older Windows versions.
Explore how attackers scan targets, identify Windows XP with SMB and samba, and leverage Metasploit exploits to gain remote access, capture screenshots, view files, and shut down the system.
Network PC's are devices that allow users to connect their computers to the internet via the (wireless) networks. There are many different types of network pc's including desktop pcs, wifi routers and others. These devices are commonly used in homes, businesses, and public places.
In this course you will learn how to hack PCs on your network. These pcs should expose something to the network, before we can hack them. That can be a shared folder, secure shell access (ssh) or another application. We will not hack at the operating system (OS) level, but instead on the application level. This is not a WiFi hacking course, instead what you learn in this course is hacking computers inside the network. If you have computers in your network, they most likely can be hacked.
It's recommended that you have some Linux knowledge before starting this course. You should have Kali Linux at hands. Kali Linux is a Linux system that has many Computer Security and Ethical Hacking tools. Some of these tools are command-line only and others are full desktop apps. You will learn how to use some of these tools in this course.
If you want to learn more about Ethical Hacking, this course is for you!
