Posted By: hyperx What are your hack/portection/whatever utils? - 02/13/05 04:15 PM
Hey,

First thing, holy fu*k I remembered my password. I have been floating around on this site for a little while now back when I was a l337z0r /\/00b h4xz0r, now I am somewhat educated and mature.

Anywho...

I was just wondering what your favorite utils are, be it the 'Ping' command, 'Sub Seven', or even Zone Alarm.

For Example, mine are;

----------------------------------------------
Windows:
1) Nessus - vulnerability scanner
2) Cain & Abel - Password recovery tool
3) Brutus - Brute Force
4) AirSnort - Encryption cracking

Live-CD's:
1) Knoppix-STD
2) PHLAK
----------------------------------------------

I have other utils that I use and others in Linux, but I mostly use windows -- Hense the tools.

Thanks,

I know I shouldnt double post, but that sounded lame. heh~

-hyperx
You made a double post to say that? Now that is lame.
Oh, I'll double post more.

-hyperx
heh, no, you won't.

I've Used

PHLAK (and many of the tools contained within for windows too, not listing them all)
Cain & Abel (isn't just a nice password recovery tool)
Ntpasswd
DSL (Damn Small Linux, 50MB live distro don'tcha know)
FreeBSD 4.9 Live
Favorite live disk is QNX from the good ole US post office.

QNX is a unix based OS that fits on a 1.5 meg floppy. Not much could fit right? Wrong.

1.) dialer
2.) GUI based OS
3.) Browser
4.) Text Editor's
5.) File manager
6.) Various other tools.

Now for 1.5 meg. I was impressed.
Lets see what do I got.......

Run my connection through
- Hardware Firewall on my Router
- Zonealarm Pro installed on my Windows OS
- Using an 128bit Encrypted SSH Tunnel
- Port Explorer
and my Knoppix Live CD
