through Kali Linux. An attacker is capable of executing remote shell or even delete some crucial files from the target system to disrupt the services. This payload alone is enough to cause substantial damage to the victim OS. Automating Attacks Automation of attacks can be done by two methods. One by using shell scripting and another by using python to invoke the Metasploit console and pass on the parameter using some available Metasploit libraries. We can run a shell script with pre-defined target

Paris was the target of multiple terrorist attacks on November 13. Over 129 people were killed, and 350 more were injured. The most deaths occurred at the concert of a U.S. rock group. Hostages were taken at this location, and suicide bombers attacked several other locations. This is not the first terrorist attack in Paris, another one took place less than a year ago at the headquarters of the Charlie Hebdo newspaper. Both of these attacks were claimed by ISIS to be their own. They have taken over

the most common type of attacks. These are most preventable with robust anti-virus and anti-malware software. Many people think that having a good anti-virus or an inbuilt firewall will prevent most of the attacks. These security measures will not control most of the other attacks like Denial of Service, Zero-Day exploits or malicious codes. The same reports also state that the cost of Virus, Worms, Trojans, and Malware attack are the lowest among all other types of attack. (Ponemon Institute 2013)

Drive-by Download Attack Vector For the drive-by download attack vector, we create a system called the security Posture, Integration, and Correlation Engine (SPICE). SPICE takes a feed of real time junk mail, sends a vulnerable virtual machine to each link within the e-mail, sends a vulnerable virtual machine to every link within the e mail, detects an infection on the virtual system, and logs all the information involved across layers into a database associated with that attack. inside mins of being

A Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack is a general name for any kind of attack against data availability. In the Web application world, a DoS attack aims to “take down” the site in order to make it inaccessible to its users. This may cause some serious financial damage to the site, both directly and indirectly by damaging its reputation. Denial of service attacks are an attempt to make a network resource or a machine unavailable to its legit users by continuous efforts of disrupt the services of a host

Denial of Service Attacks Denial of service cyberattacks are attacks on websites that make them inaccessible to normal people. While a lot of cyberattacks are used to steal information, denial of service attacks don’t try to. Instead, they try to make website servers unavailable and in some cases, they are “used as a smokescreen for other malicious activities,” like trying to take down firewalls. A successful denial of service attack impacts a very large number of people, so hackers and other people

Overview In late 2016 the entire Internet was shaken by an attack of proportions that had never been seen. Although the type of attack at ground level was nothing new or too complex, the scale and method of delivering the attack caused all internet security researchers to take a moment of pause. Mirai, a previously known “botnet” that had affected other institutions such as Krebs on Security and OVH earlier in the year, is a massive army of recruited Internet of Things (IoT) devices ranging from

remark about attack trees which can be found in papers and articles in 1999. Some of the early papers which were open to public also shows the participation of NASA in evolution of attack trees. NASA called it Fault tree analysis. Now it has become one of the most reliable probabilistic assessment technique based on logic techniques and probability techniques. These techniques originated in 1960 in US missile facilities. “In the year 1981 the US NRC issued the Fault tree handbook”. [3] Attack Trees Attack

Pearl Harbor Pearl Harbor occurred in the morning December 7th of 1941, which was a Sunday. There were six carriers with 423 Japanese fighter planes that attack Pearl Harbor. The Japanese attack in several waves, the first wave was 183 Japanese planes that took off 230 miles north of Oahu and were heading to Pearl Harbor. When these planes took off, at 7:02 a.m., a short radar station detected the planes and then contacted a junior officer who said it was American B-17 that was expected from the

flood denial of service attack that took the company offline for several days. At a time when only 20 million Americans were online this was one of the first high profile examples of how fragile internet infrastructure could be. Fast forward 20 years and businesses and individuals are now hugely dependent on the Internet services they both offer and use, and the primary threat to the availability of those Internet is the distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack. DDoS attacks have evolved consistently
