Title: requesting expert advice
Post by: Friday13 on July 15, 2012, 08:38:56 AM
Hello and greetings to all fellow computer users,

I am here to learn about ethical hacking tools (hardware or software) for my project. I will be presenting them in our school (My course is Information Technology). I searched the internet, and quite displeased with the results because the list is quite short (I believe there might be more of it in existence).

The tool name, what it does and/or what should be done to counter it.

Please pass your knowledge Sir/Ma'am for my studies. Thank you.  ;)

You may also want to cover the definition of "Ethical Hacking" and why it exists and that there is more to Pen Testing and Ethical hacking than just running some tools.  Good luck on your report.
