- Vulnerability Assessment and Exploitation:
- Common vulnerabilities (SQL injection, XSS)
- Exploit development (principles, using libraries like scapy)
- Password Cracking:
- Hashing algorithms and password storage
- Python tools (Hashcat, John the Ripper)
- Post-Exploitation and Reporting:
- Maintaining access on compromised systems
- Lateral movement within a network
- Structured reporting of findings and recommendations
- Ethical Considerations and Legal Aspects:
- Responsible disclosure and reporting vulnerabilities
- Understanding relevant laws and regulations
- Programming Fundamentals:
- Variables, data types, operators, control flow, functions
- Familiarity with any programming language (optional, but beneficial)
- Networking Fundamentals:
- Network terminology and protocols (IP addressing, TCP/IP, common protocols)
