If you are using Windows operating system or a Linux based
OS, or even both if you want, you can see lot of applications online and some
of them are in categorized. It can be for school purposes, system of your
computer (i.e. antivirus, speed up your pc) and other application such as for
games or just for own purpose to explore it and many more. One of my used applications
when it comes to hacking is BackTrack Linux.
It is a Linux based OS but the
only difference of it when it comes to other usual Linux OS is that, it has a
built in hacking tools that you can use on different areas. BackTrack Linux on which you can
check its full meaning online has different versions. As of now, the latest
version is the release 3. You can download the application on its website. But
the one I’m using right now is the release 1, the KDE type. Since the release
3, well I don’t know if it has a problem but I can’t configure my hacking tools
correctly so I started to downgrade my version then all works fine after using
the release 1. One of my favorite tools about it is the hacking of Wi-Fi
whether it is a WEP or WPA format.
If you only know the commands since you will
deal always on the terminal once you used it, you can start decoding the Wi-Fi you
want to access. Other tool of the BackTrack Linux is getting the credentials of
other users.
Like yamas, one of the applications you can use right away if you download the .sh file and all the working tools beside you. Its purpose is to get the credentials of the IP address you are attacking to. Just make sure the firewall on the persons pc is enable. Because once the secured antivirus like Kaspersky is installed on it, it can deny all the access trying to control to your pc. This will enable you to see what credentials the user type and see the username and password. Knowing this kind of activities and tools like wireshark are things we learn from our previous subject, Information Security. Our professor always thought us that we only use this hacking for school purposes only and will not go beyond other illegal activities.

While using this application, I can still access my Windows
8 Pro OS. The reason about this is that, I only use Oracle Virtual Box when I want
to use my BackTrack Linux. Just download the BackTrack Linux OS, install it in
your VBox, run it, make sure you have all the working tools, the internet
access and a Wi-Fi connection then done. Watch and search different kind of
utilities you want to use in BackTrack, explore it and you can be a hacker. Not
that pro hacker but at least you know what other hacking tools hacker used to
hack.
After sharing this, how can you consider yourself now? Do
you want to start this activity right away and be hacker one day? As what
BackTrack Linux said that “the quieter you
become, the more you are able to hear.”
