Actionable advice on how to patch the vulnerabilities.
Use Whois , Nslookup , and theHarvester to find domain ownership, IP ranges, and employee emails without touching the target's servers. Active Recon: Use Nmap to discover open ports and services. Penetration Testing with Kali Linux
Establishing a way back into the system (e.g., creating a new user or a cron job). Actionable advice on how to patch the vulnerabilities
Using the compromised machine to attack other systems on the internal network that weren't previously accessible. 6. Reporting and theHarvester to find domain ownership
Comprehensive scanners that flag known vulnerabilities (CVEs).
Use VMware or VirtualBox to run Kali as a virtual machine. This allows for easy snapshots and keeps your host OS safe.
This is the "hacking" phase where you bypass security controls.
