Course Description
The student will learn about the network hacking or penetration testing concept without any tools in this Course. The Course is divided into 6 Sections or chapters.
In the first chapter, you will learn about socket programming and its concept. You will also learn about Wireshark and its filters.
In the second chapter, you will learn the scanning process. The chapter includes coding IP scanners (ping sweep), threaded IP scanners, port scanners, and threaded port scanners.
The Third chapter teaches you about the sniffing process. You will learn how to create the sniffers of Ethernet, Network, and TCP layers. You will also learn about ARP protocol and how to perform ARP spoofing attacks. With the help of a sniffer, you can create your Intrusion detection system.
The fourth chapter deals with the DHCP server concept and its attack. You will learn how to configure a DHCP server and create a program to launch a DHCP starvation attack.
In the Fifth chapter, you will learn about wireless frames. You will see how to capture important information such as SSID, BSSID, and channel number from the wireless access point (AP). You will learn about scanning wireless frames, death attacks, and finding the client connected to AP.
In the Sixth chapter, students will learn about the honeypot creation. How to give fake ARP and ICMP (ping) replies. You will learn about unlisted DHCP attacks. You will know how to send a fake port open reply or a fake three-way handshake.
Goals
- Students will learn the use of Python programming in Network Penetration testing.
- They will learn the implementation of network attacks such as scanning, sniffing, DHCP server attacks, and Wireless attacks.
- They can enhance their knowledge of network security by creating their own tools. Students can launch different attacks to check the vulnerability of the network system.
- Students can make software to detect the different types of network attacks.
- Students can do new research by applying by creating their own tools and detection mechanisms.
Prerequisites
- Basic Knowledge Networking.
- Basic Knowledge of Python programming.
