10 Popular Tools for Learning to Be a Beginner Hacker

Hi Coders... :) This time, Mimin won't discuss programming first, hehe; today, Mimin will share 10 tools to learn to be a novice hacker, eeittss, take it the right way, a developer also has to understand a little or a lot about it too. The world of hacking so that when we make a program, we can minimize the gaps a bit, okay without lingering; let's see below.

 10 Popular Tools for Learning to Be a Beginner Hacker

1. Nmap

Short for Network Mapper, this open-source tool is widely used to organize network tests and security reviews. Port-scan tools are a feature used to gather information by sending raw packets to system ports. With the response from the scanning results, we can determine whether the port is open, closed, or filtered. This process is also known as port discovery or port enumeration.

2. Burp Suite

Burp Suite is a Java-based web penetration framework that professional hackers use to identify vulnerabilities and verify attack vectors for web-based applications. Burp Suite acts as an interception proxy, interpreting all requests and responses to and from the target web application. Besides having essential functions, this tool has advanced functions such as spider, repeater, decoder, comparer, extender, and sequencer.

3. Wireshark

Wireshark is an Open Source tool that allows us to analyze network traffic in real time. Wireshark is widely known for its sniffing technology, which can detect security problems by troubleshooting common network problems. With Wireshark, it is possible to read and intercept results in a readable format, making it possible to identify threats in advance. It supports up to 5000 network protocols and is available for all major operating systems.

4. Metasploit

Metasploit is an Open Source cybersecurity project, and this tool is usually used to find vulnerabilities in an application. Because the Metasploit Framework is written in Ruby, it is easy to develop, test, and exploit, resulting in increased pentester productivity. And can also demonstrate risk through closed-loop vulnerability validation and measure security awareness through simulated phishing emails.

5. John The Ripper

John The Ripper is one of the most frequently used security tools to test password strength, which works on about 15 operating systems, including Windows, macOS, and Linux. These tools are usually used to crack passwords because they combine various features into one package. This tool also uses brute force technology to decode passwords and can change the algorithm for testing passwords.

6. Aircrack-ng

Aircrack-NG is a Wi-Fi assessment security suite for home and enterprise security checks. Its basic functionality lies in a system package that breaks it down and uses it to share Wi-Fi. The suite combines full support for 802.11 WEP and WPA-PSK systems with a terminal-based interface and other features such as support for WPA migration mode, fast deployment speeds, and reconciliation with external equipment.

7. Sqlmap

sqlmap is an open-source penetration testing tool that automates detecting and exploiting SQL injection flaws and taking over database servers. many unique features for testers to use, such as fetching data from the database to accessing the underlying file system and executing commands on the operating system through out-of-band connections

8. Hydra

Hydra is a parallel login cracker that supports multiple protocols to attack. It is swift and flexible, and new modules are easy to add; this tool allows security researchers and consultants to demonstrate how easy it is to gain unauthorized access to systems remotely.

9. Ettercap

Ettercap is a comprehensive tool packed with features that include direct connection scanning and fast content filtering; this tool has a GUI interface and command-line execution features. This tool is widely known for its network analysis and ability to dissect protocols.

10.WPScan

WPScan is an open-source WordPress security scanning tool. We can use it to scan the WordPress websites we manage for vulnerabilities in the WordPress core of popular WordPress plugins and themes.

These are some of the tools that are pretty popular that can be used to learn about the world of hacking; 

here is a little message from Mimin for those who are currently learning hacking or have more or less explored it; if you find a loophole in an application being tested, it would be nice to report it to the manager so that it can improve. Security is the white hat to protect our country's system. Cheers Coders :)
