Abstract

As nowadays all the information is available online, a large number of users are accessing it, some of them use this information for gaining knowledge and some use it to know how to use this information to destroy or steal the data of websites or databases without the knowledge of the owner. The purpose of this paper is to tell what is hacking, who is hackers, what is ethical hacking, what is the code of conduct of ethical hackers and the need of them. A small introduction of Linux Operating System is given in this paper. All the techniques are performed on the Linux operating system named Kali Linux. After this some basic hacking attacks covered in the paper are MiTM Attack (Man in The Middle Attack), Phishing Attack, DoS Attack (Denial of Services Attack). Further what is Wi-Fi, what are the techniques used in the Wi-Fi protection and the methods used by the hackers to hacks Wi-Fi passwords is covered in the paper.
