Practical Ethical Hacking Expert Complete Course

Complete Practical Ethical Hacking Expert course will train you to hack systems like black-hat hackers and safeguard them like security specialists assuming that you have no prior experience in hacking.

This course starts with the fundamentals of ethical hacking and the many types of penetration testing before installing the necessary tools (works on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X) and diving right into hacking systems. You will learn everything moving forward by analyzing and utilizing computer systems like networks, servers, clients, webpages, etc., therefore there won't ever be any tedious, theoretical lectures.

Practical Ethical Hacking Expert Complete Course Overview

The course is structured into several sections, each covering a specific area of penetration testing or hacking. In each of these sections, you'll learn how the target system functions, its flaws, and actual hacking techniques. You'll also learn how to protect this system from certain assaults. The majority of penetration testing fields will be covered by the time you complete this course, which will help you grow from a beginner to an advanced level.

The course is divided into four main sections:

1. Network Hacking - You will learn how to test the security of both wired and wireless networks in this part. You will first become familiar with certain fundamental network terms, how networks operate, and how devices interact with one another. It will then be divided into the following three sections:

• Pre-connection attacks: In this section, you will learn what you can do before connecting to a network and before having access to the internet. You will start by learning about the networks around you, identifying the devices connected to them, and learning how to control connections around you (i.e., deny/allow devices from connecting to networks) even without knowing the password of the target network.

• Getting Access: Now that you are aware of the nearby networks, learn how to decipher the password for your target network, whether it uses WEP, WPA, or even WPA2.

• Attacks after the target network connection: Now that you have the key, you can connect to the target network. In this section, you will learn a number of effective techniques that let you see everything the connected devices do online, including their login credentials, passwords, visited URLs, images, and videos, as well as how to redirect requests, inject malicious code into loaded pages, and more.

Wired and wireless networks are both vulnerable to all of these threats. You will also learn how to set up a phony WiFi network, lure users to connect to it, and then utilize the aforementioned methods against the users who have already connected.

2. Getting Access - You will discover two key methods in this part for taking complete control of or hacking computer systems:

• Attacks against the server: You will discover how to completely access computer systems without requiring user interaction in this subsection. You'll learn how to gather important details about a target computer system, like its operating system, open ports, and installed services, and then utilize this information to find weaknesses and vulnerabilities and exploit them to take complete control of the target. Finally, you'll find how to produce various reports for your discoveries.

• Client Side Attacks: In this subsection, you'll learn how to trick the target user into installing a backdoor on their system without even realizing it. This is done by hijacking updates or backdooring downloaded on the fly. If the target system has no vulnerabilities, the only way to access it is by interacting with the users. 

Additionally, you'll learn how to spoof emails to make them appear to be sent from the target's friend, boss, or any other email account they're likely to interact with. You'll also learn how to create trojans by backdooring common files (like an image or a PDF) and use social engineering to deliver this trojan to the target.

3. Post Exploitation - In this chapter, you will discover how to communicate with the systems you have so far infiltrated. You'll discover how to read, write, upload, and execute on the file system, maintain access, spy on the target, and even use the target computer as a launching pad to break into other computer systems.

4. Website / Web Application Hacking - In this section, you will learn how websites operate, how to find out details about a target website (such as website owner, server location, used technologies, etc.), and how to find and use the following risky vulnerabilities to hack into websites:

• File Upload

• Code Execution

• Local File Inclusion

• Remote File Inclusion

• SQL Injection

• Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)

You will discover how to identify, stop, and secure your system against the outlined assaults at the conclusion of each section.

By the end of the course, you'll be able to modify these techniques to launch more potent attacks and adapt them to various situations and scenarios. All the techniques in this course are practical and work against real systems. You'll first understand the entire mechanism of each technique before learning how to use it to hack into the target system.

Who this course is for:

• Any person who wants to learn ethical hacking or penetration testing

• Anyone interested in learning how to hack computer systems

• Everyone that is interested in finding out how to protect their computers from hackers
