Course content

1 section • 15 lectures • 45m total length

  • Introduction0:23

    Explore networking fundamentals and interview-focused topics for ethical hackers. Gain a comprehensive understanding of how networks operate to strengthen your ethical hacking skills.

  • Lab Setup2:29

    learn to set up kali linux and metasploitable 2 on vmware by downloading, extracting, opening the virtual machines, and logging in with default credentials kali/kali and msf admin/msf admin.

  • Basics of Networking5:12

    Learn the basics of networking, including LAN, WAN, and MAN concepts, and explore essential components such as NICs, cables, hubs, switches, routers, and wireless networks.

  • Goals of Network Security1:35

    Learn the goals of network security, including confidentiality, integrity, availability, authentication, authorization, encryption, accountability and auditing, and incident response and recovery.

  • Network Protocols1:12

    Explore how network protocols enable computers to communicate, focusing on TCP's guaranteed delivery via a three-way handshake and UDP's connectionless delivery for loss-tolerant scenarios.

  • 3 way Handshake2:57

    learn how the tcp three-way handshake establishes a reliable client–server connection using syn, syn-ack, and ack, with wireshark to observe the packet exchange.

  • OSI model3:29

    Explore the OSI model, a seven-layer framework from physical to application, and how data travels top-down and bottom-up through the physical, data link, network, transport, session, presentation, and application layers.

  • Ip addresses5:26

    Discover ip addresses as digital postcodes, compare IPv4's 32-bit space of about 4.3 billion with IPv6's 128-bit space, and review class A–C ranges, private ranges, and manual or dhcp configuration.

  • Subnetting6:42

    Master subnetting by dividing IP addresses into subnets with masks, understanding network and host portions, and using CIDR notation like /24, /16, and /8 to compute addresses and hosts.

  • Mac Address1:39

    Discover how a mac address uniquely identifies a device's network interface, acting like a fingerprint and shown in hexadecimal with colons or dashes.

  • DHCP1:32

    Discover how dhcp, the dynamic host configuration protocol, automatically assigns IP addresses and network details. In Linux, request a new IP with sudo dhclient <interface>.

  • DNS3:29

    Explore how the domain name system translates human-readable domain names into IP addresses, performs DNS and reverse lookups, and demonstrates DNS poisoning via a local hosts file.

  • SNMP0:41

    Learn how the network management protocol enables administrators to monitor and manage routers, switches, and printers at the application layer, including version, community string, and system information, with SNMP enumeration.

  • ARP2:31

    Explore the address resolution protocol (arp): map ip addresses to mac addresses, view and add static entries with arp -a and arp -s, and observe arp requests in network scans.

  • Wi-Fi5:58

    Learn how wifi enables wireless local area networks using 2.4 ghz and 5 ghz bands, with encryption (WEP to WPA3) and modes like master, managed, and monitor.

  • Quiz

Requirements

  • Basic IT Knowledge.
