A DESCRIPTIVE REVIEW OF DIFFERENT PENETRATION TESTING TOOLS AND METHODS

Abstract

 The penetration testing is to authenticate a recently discovered and approachable applications and networks, structure that are vulnerable to a certainty harm ,expose to danger and security risk which could reveal unauthorized access to resources. Penetration testing is a series of actions or steps to reproduce all methods taken by attackers to obtain a system. A penetration tester is the attested , programmed and effective technique used to find the vulnerabilities in an attempt to accomplish an interruption into host, network or application resources. The penetration testing can determine the internal and external resources. In this paper we implement an nmap, cain, abel, wireshark penetration testing tools that examine the vulnerabilities such as a open ,close ports and also the method to penetrate a individual operating system . Security professionals across the globe usually address these security risks by Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT).
