15. Ethical Hacking Of Public Network

Image 15 of 41

Restaurants, malls and coffee areas provide public free WiFi access to attract customers due to its flexibility and feasibility. These type of networks have been popular among the public in recent years; however, it is understood that they create a major threat. User’s personal information of the network can be easily be targeted by hackers. Our objective is to assess the weakness of the public network. The objectives will be achieved by creating a sniffer packet from a primary Linux based device. We will then use the primary device to hack information from our secondary device connected within the same network. The Python Programming Language will be used along with some popular beginner libraries such as an SCAPY, IMPACKET and LIBNMAP. View or download a PDF version of this poster.
