The Social Engineering Toolkit: Creating Fake Web Sites to Own Boxes

In the Linux Distribution BackTrack 4 it has the Social Engineering Toolkit otherwise known as SET. The homepage for SET is http://www.secmaniac.com/ and there is more useful information there. I am particularly impressed by the new java applet function is SET which allow the tester to effectively test how a targeted attack may succeed. Currently SET has two main methods of attack, one is utilizing Metasploit payloads and Java-based attacks by setting up a malicious website (which you can clone whatever one you want) that ultimately delivers your payload. The second method is through file-format bugs and e-mail phishing. The second method supports your own open-mail relay, a customized sendmail open-relay, or Gmail integration to deliver your payloads through e-mail.

To see this operation in action Click Here. If you want to install it on your own machine then there will be a tutorial on how to set this up on Saturday.

Learning Linux

Learning linux from the ground up is really a challenge. As you progress even more you start customizing your OS from how it starts and how it shutdown. As soon as you start on a Live CD your x server is pretty much either gnome or KDE. I mean it looks easy to do, but as soon as you start research how the x server it can get trick. My recommendation is to also learn the bash line or command prompt. if your good with the line commands then reconfiguring your computer shouldn't be a problem, but you just learn the GUI layer of it and not the line commands believe me your going to have hard time restoring your computer. As I ask people around they say linux is hard to install. The easiest way to partition your drive manually is like this. sda1 /home -- This is where you want to store all your data in case your linux gets corrupted. This space can be as big as you want sda2 /swap -- Linux is just like windows it needs it virtual space. The swap size depends on your physical ram.

Netwars Competition

The NetWars game is a collection of computer and network security challenges. It is designed to represent real-world security issues: their flaws and their resolutions. Each player can follow an independent path based on individual problem solving skills, technical skills, aptitude, and creativity. The game is played in a fun but safe environment using the technology that drives our lives every day. The game starts when a player downloads and starts a CD-ROM image on a PC or in a virtual environment such as VMware Player. The image contains a brief tutorial and the game's full instructions. The player must find a hidden key within the image that is downloaded and then uses that key to enter an online environment where knowledge of security vulnerabilities and their exploits can be turned into points. Upcoming Competitions   June 18-20, 2010 PST September 17-19, 2010 November 5-7, 2010 December 17-19, 2010 April 29 - May 1, 2011 Click Here to read more
