Explore social engineering techniques and how they enable hacking, including phishing and man-in-the-middle attacks. Learn how to protect your system from these threats.
Understand how social engineering manipulates people to reveal sensitive information by exploiting curiosity or fear; attackers use phishing emails and redirects and collect details from search engines and social networks.
Learn how to create a malicious payload with Metasploit using msfvenom, host it on an Apache web server, and set up a listener to gain remote access, noting antivirus blocks.
Explore how FatRat can generate a backdoor and evade antivirus detection, and examine payload creation, deployment, and session control.
Explore how attackers use tools like Shellter to inject a malicious payload into a Windows installer, set up a listener with msfconsole, and gain control of a target system.
Create a malicious Word document that uses a macro to install a backdoor and payload, and set up a listener to capture sessions.
Learn Meterpreter basics in a controlled context, including uploading and running files, hidden mode operation, keystroke capture, and remote command execution on a target machine.
Demonstrates extracting saved passwords from a Windows target machine using LaZagne, highlighting steps to locate and access stored credentials.
This lecture explains how a VNC session can be captured to remotely control another computer, highlighting concepts like payload injection and session handling within social engineering contexts.
The lecture demonstrates locating wireless passwords and viewing wifi profile details using Windows commands, including key content and interface checks.
Learn how a man-in-the-middle attack intercepts and redirects network traffic, reads credentials, and uses DNS spoofing to redirect victims to a malicious site.
Learn how to use the social engineering toolkit in Kali Linux to clone a login page and harvest credentials, including methods to mask IP and simulate phishing emails.
Explore how social engineering and phishing tools like Blackeye enable cloning websites and capturing login credentials.
Learn how BeEF hooks browsers with malicious javascript to give attackers control via a web interface and BeEF control panel.
Explore how to hook a browser using MITMf and BeEF, demonstrating automatic URL injection to a target's browser and control via a hooked Windows target.
Learn to use BeEF to deliver a malicious file, hook the victim's browser, and gain full control of the target machine by running a session.
Explore how social engineering can expose a local computer to the internet without port forwarding, using a malicious file and the Metasploit framework to simulate a breach.
Learn how to use setoolkit for social engineering outside the local network, including cloning a website and harvesting credentials with a credential harvester.
Learn to use BeEF outside the local network by configuring tunnels, starting the BeEF framework, and hooking a browser through the BeEF control panel.
Explore how social engineering and phishing emails use a fake login page to steal login information, illustrating how attackers lure victims to reveal credentials.
Learn to detect Meterpreter payloads on a Windows PC and terminate the reverse connection by using a payload detection tool to identify and kill the infected process in memory.
Learn to protect yourself from beef framework and browser exploits by using a simple browser extension to enable or disable javascript, preventing hooks.
Learn to defend against phishing by inspecting email sources, verifying sender details, researching domains, and using VirusTotal to compare links with the original login page.
This course will teach you the most common social engineering threats and how to protect yourself and your systems from social engineering attacks.
You'll learn how to perform attacks on targets using a wide variety of sites and tools, and develop payloads that effectively compromise the system.
By the time you've completed this course, you will have a strong knowledge about social engineering.
