Network Hacking Continued – Intermediate to Advanced

Welcome to this advanced network hacking course, this course is designed to build up on what you already know about network hacking, therefore I recommend finishing the network hacking section of my general ethical hacking course or finishing my network hacking course before starting this one.

Just like all of my other courses, this course is highly practical, but it will not neglect the theory, since this is an advanced course we will be breaking each attack into its smaller components and understand how each of these components work, therefore by the end of the course you will be able to mix these attacks and adopt them to suit different situations and different scenarios, you will also be able to write your own man in the middle scripts to implement your own attacks.

Because this course builds on what you learn in the courses mentioned above, the main sections here have similar titles to the main sections in these courses, but the topics covered here are more advanced.

This course is divided into three main sections:

1. Pre-Connection Attacks – in this section you will learn how to extend the pre-connection attacks you already know, for example you will learn how to run these attacks against networks and clients that use 5Ghz and extend the deauthentication attack to target multiple clients and multiple networks at the same time.
2. Gaining Access – In this section you will learn a number of advanced techniques to gain access to various network configurations and various network encryptions. First you will learn how to overcome some security features that would prevent you from even trying any attacks, you will learn how to discover and target hidden networks and bypass mac filtering whether it is implemented using a black-list or a white-list. As you go through all of the lectures in this section, you will learn how to manually configure and create a fake access point, you will understand exactly how it works and the services it relies on, therefore by the end of this section you will be able to create custom fake access points to suit your needs, so you will be able to create fake captive portals, steal WPA/WPA2 passwords or use it to spy on clients that connect to it. This section is divided into a number of subsections each covering a specific topic:
   1. Captive Portals – captive portals are open networks that require users to login after connecting to it, they are usually used in hotels and airports. In this subsection you will learn three methods to hack captive portals.
   2. WEP Cracking – Even though this is an old and weak encryption, this is still used in some networks and you can not call yourself a hacker if you can not crack it, by now you should know how to rack WEP if OPEN authentication is used, in this section you will learn how to gain access to WEP networks that use Shared Key Authentication (SKA) as all of the methods that you learned so far will NOT work against SKA.
   3. WPA & WPA2 cracking – In this section you will learn more advanced techniques to gain access to WPA & WPA2 networks, this section is divided into even smaller subsections:
      1. Exploiting WPS – in this subsection you will learn how to debug reaver’s output and exploit the WPS feature on more routers using reaver’s advanced options, you will also learn how to unlock some routers if they lock after a number of failed attempts.
      2. Advanced Wordlist Attacks – in this subsection you will learn how to run more advanced wordlist attacks, this will increase your chances of cracking the key; you will learn how to use huge wordlists without wasting storage, save the cracking progress so that you can pause and resume and crack the key much faster using the GPU instead of the CPU.
      3. Evil Twin Attack – Finally if none of the above methods work, the last resort is to use social engineering to get the key, in this subsection you will learn how to get the password for a target WPA/WPA2 network using social engineering, without guessing and without using a wordlist.
   4. WPA & WPA2 Enterprise – These networks are usually used in companies and colleges, these are secure networks that use WPA or WPA2 but also require users to login with a username and password after connecting, in this subsection you will understand how they work and how to hack them.
3. Post-Connection Attacks – In this section you will learn a number of advanced attacks that you can run after connecting to a network, all of the attacks in this subsection work against WiFi and ethernet networks, you will learn how to manually bypass HTTPS and capture sensitive data, you will be able to use this method regardless of how you became the man in the middle so you will be able to use it with any scenario or situation when interesting data is flowing through your computer, you will also learn how to inject javascript/HTML in HTTPS websites, bypass router-side security and run ARP poisoning attacks without raising any alarms. You will also learn how to manually analyse data flows and build your own MITM attack ideas, not only that but I will also teach you how to write your own scripts to execute your own MITM attacks. By the end of this section you will learn the right methodology of building your own attack, you’ll learn how to analyse network flows, run a simple test, translate that into a working script that implements your attack, and finally test that script against a remote computer.

Finally at the end of the course you will learn how to protect yourself and your systems from these attacks.

All the attacks in this course are practical attacks that work against real computers, in each technique you will understand the theory behind it and how it works, then you’ll learn how to use that technique in a real life scenario, so by the end of the course you’ll be able to modify these techniques or combine them to come up with more powerful attacks and adopt them to different scenarios and different operating systems.

With this course you’ll get 24/7 support, so if you have any questions you can post them in the Q&A section and we’ll respond to you within 15 hours.

Notes:

• This course is created for educational purposes only and all the attacks are launched in my own lab or against devices that I have permission to test.
• This course is totally a product of Zaid Sabih & zSecurity, no other organization is associated with it or a certification exam. Although, you will receive a Course Completion Certification from Udemy, apart from that NO OTHER ORGANIZATION IS INVOLVED.
