Sniffing is the process of monitoring and capturing all the packets passing through a given network using sniffing tools. It is a form of “tapping phone wires” and get to know about the conversation. It is also called wiretapping applied to the computer networks.

Phishing is a cybercrime in which a target or targets are contacted by email, telephone or text message by someone posing as a legitimate institution to lure individuals into providing sensitive data such as personally identifiable information, banking and credit card details, and passwords.

There are several ways how hackers can gain access to a public WiFi network and infiltrate connected devices to steal data. The most common practice that hackers use is called sniffing. This method allows hackers to hijack any packet of data that is being transmitted between a device and a router.

The mobile device has become an inseparable part of life today. The attackers are easily able to compromise the mobile network because of various vulnerabilities, the majority of the attacks are because of the untrusted apps. SMS is another way the attackers are gaining access to the mobile devices by sending phishing messages/spam messages to user

2. Part A: Setup Lab

a) Setup lab

From the virtualization technology with software VMware or virtual box we can do more than one virtual machines, one linux and other windows 2007 or windows Xp

Download vmware and install it

Create folder edurs-vm in non-windows partition. Create a folder for each operating system

Install any windows operating system.

Download backtrack

To install backtrack on usb, download unebootin. We need also to use the tool to support booting from flash memory in vmware.

Download and install kali linux

Download and install metasploit.

Metasploit is big project that contains a lot of modules or programs. These modules or programs can utilize the holes in windows machines or linux machines operating systems. For any hole that occur in the operating systems, we candevelop the program that can utilize this hole. We can work on it through command line or graphical interface. The programs that use graphical interface are armitage and Koblet Strike . In linux we can update the metasploite using command msfupdate.
