Ethical hackers should also understand how to use reverse engineering to uncover specifications and check a system for vulnerabilities by analyzing its code.
Many hackers use the Linux operating system (OS) because Linux is a free and open-source OS
meaning that anyone can modify it. It’s easy to access and customize all parts of Linux
which allows a hacker more control over manipulating the OS. Linux also features a well-integrated command-line interface
giving users a more precise level of control than many other systems offer. While Linux is considered more secure than many other systems
some hackers can modify existing Linux security distributions to use them as hacking software. Most ethical hackers prefer Linux because it's considered more secure than other operating systems and does not generally require the use of third-party antivirus software. Ethical hackers must be well-versed in Linux to identify loopholes and combat malicious hackers
as it’s one of the most popular systems for web servers.
Ethical hacking is legal because the hacker has full
expressed permission to test the vulnerabilities of a system. An ethical hacker operates within constraints stipulated by the person or organization for which they work
and this agreement makes for a legal arrangement. An ethical hacker is like someone who handles quality control for a car manufacturer. They may have to try to break certain components of the vehicle such as the windshield
suspension system
transmission
or engine to see where they are weak or how they can improve them. With ethical hacking
the hacker is trying to “break” the system to ascertain how it can be less vulnerable to cyberattacks. However
if an ethical hacker attacks an area of a network or computer without getting expressed permission from the owner
they could be considered a gray hat hacker
violating ethical hacking principles.
The different types of hackers include white hat hackers who are ethical hackers and are authorized to hack systems
black hat hackers who are cybercriminals
and grey hat hackers
who fall in-between and may not damage your system but hack for personal gain. There are also red hat hackers who attack black hat hackers directly. Some call new hackers green hat hackers. These people aspire to be full-blown
respected hackers. State-sponsored hackers work for countries and hacktivists and use hacking to support or promote a philosophy. Sometimes a hacker can act as a whistleblower
hacking their own organization in order to expose hidden practices. There are also script kiddies and blue hat hackers. A script kiddie tries to impress their friends by launching scripts and download tools to take down websites and networks. When a script kiddie gets angry at…
Whether you want to get your first job in IT security

or prepare to check the security of your own home network
Udemy offers practical and accessible ethical hacking courses to help keep your networks safe from cybercriminals
Penetration testing skills make you a more marketable IT tech. Understanding how to exploit servers
networks
and applications means that you will also be able to better prevent malicious exploitation. From website and network hacking
to pen testing in Python and Metasploit
Udemy has a course for you.
Penetration tests have five different stages. The first stage defines the goals and scope of the test and the testing methods that will be used. Security experts will also gather intelligence on the company's system to better understand the target. The second stage of a pen test is scanning the target application or network to determine how they will respond to an attack. You can do this through a static analysis of application code and dynamic scans of running applications and networks. The third stage is the attack phase
when possible vulnerabilities discovered in the last stage are attacked with various hacking methods. In the fourth stage of a penetration test
the tester attempts to maintain access to the system to steal any sensitive data or damaging systems. The fifth and final stage of a pen test is the reporting phase
when testers compile the test results.
There are many types of penetration testing. Internal penetration testing tests an enterprise's internal network. This test can determine how much damage can be caused by an employee. An external penetration test targets a company's externally facing technology like their website or their network. Companies use these tests to determine how an anonymous hacker can attack a system. In a covert penetration test
also known as a double-blind penetration test
few people in the company will know that a pen test is occurring
including any security professional. This type of test will test not only systems but a company's response to an active attack. With a closed-box penetration test
a hacker may know nothing about the enterprise under attack other than its name. In an open-box test
the hacker will receive some information about a company's security to aid them in the attack.
Penetration testing
or pen testing
is the process of attacking an enterprise's network to find any vulnerabilities that could be present to be patched. Ethical hackers and security experts carry out these tests to find any weak spots in a system’s security before hackers with malicious intent find them and exploit them. Someone who has no previous knowledge of the system's security usually performs these tests
making it easier to find vulnerabilities that the development team may have overlooked. You can perform penetration testing using manual or automated technologies to compromise servers
web applications
wireless networks
network devices
mobile devices
and other exposure points.

The Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) certification exam supports and tests the knowledge of auditors, security officers, site administrators, security professionals, and anyone else who wants to ensure a network is safe against cybercriminals. With the CEH credential, you can design and govern the minimum standards necessary for credentialing information that security professionals need to engage in ethical hacking. You can also make it known to the public if someone who has earned their CEH credentials has met or exceeded the minimum standards. You are also empowered to reinforce the usefulness and self-regulated nature of ethical hacking. The CEH exam doesn’t cater to specific security hardware or software vendors, such as Fortinet, Avira, Kaspersky, Cisco, or others, making it a vendor-neutral program.

Classification of Internet Security Attacks
Classification of Internet Security Attacks. There are many types of penetration testing. Internal penetration testing tests an enterprise's internal network. This test can determine how much damage can be caused by an employee. An external penetration test targets a company's externally facing technology like their website or their network. Companies use these tests to determine how an anonymous hacker can attack a system. In a covert penetration test, also known as a double-blind penetration test, few people in the company will know that a pen test is occurring, including any security professional. This type of test will test not only systems but a company's response to an active attack. With a closed-box penetration test, a hacker may know nothing about the enterprise under attack other than its name. In an open-box test, the hacker will receive some information about a company's security to aid them in the attack.

Information Gathering and Configuration Flaws
Penetration tests have five different stages. The first stage defines the goals and scope of the test and the testing methods that will be used. Security experts will also gather intelligence on the company's system to better understand the target. The second stage of a pen test is scanning the target application or network to determine how they will respond to an attack. You can do this through a static analysis of application code and dynamic scans of running applications and networks. The third stage is the attack phase, when possible vulnerabilities discovered in the last stage are attacked with various hacking methods. In the fourth stage of a penetration test, the tester attempts to maintain access to the system to steal any sensitive data or damaging systems. The fifth and final stage of a pen test is the reporting phase, when testers compile the test results.
