Social Engineering - Study Of Breaking Network Security Through Manipulation

Social engineering is a nontechnical method of breaking into a system or network. It's the process of deceiving users of a system and convincing them to give out information that can be used to defeat or bypass security mechanisms. Social engineering is important to understand because hackers can use it to attack the human element of a system and circumvent technical security measures. This method can be used to gather information before or during an attack.

The following is an example of social engineering recounted by Kapil Raina, currently a security expert at Verisign, based on an actual workplace experience with a previous employer. "One morning a few years back, a group of strangers walked into a large shipping firm and walked out with access to the firm's entire corporate network. How did they do it? By obtaining small amounts of access, bit by bit, from a number of different employees in that firm. First, they did research about the company for two days before even attempting to set foot on the premises. For example, they learned key employees' names by calling HR. Next, they pretended to lose their key to the front door, and a man let them in. Then they "lost" their identity badges when entering the third floor secured area, smiled, and a friendly employee opened the door for them. The strangers knew the CFO was out of town, so they were able to enter his office and obtain financial data off his unlocked computer. They dug through the corporate trash, finding all kinds of useful documents. They asked a janitor for a garbage pail in which to place their contents and carried all of this data out of the building in their hands. The strangers had studied the CFO's voice, so they were able to phone, pretending to be the CFO, in a rush, desperately in need of his network password. From there, they used regular technical hacking tools to gain super-user access into the system. In this case, the strangers were network consultants performing a security audit for the CFO without any other employees' knowledge. They were never given any privileged information from the CFO but were able to obtain all the access they wanted through social engineering." 

The most dangerous part of social engineering is that companies with authentication processes, firewalls, virtual private networks, and network-monitoring software are still wide open to attacks, because social engineering doesn't assault the security measures directly. Instead, a social-engineering attack bypasses the security measures and goes after the human element in an organization.

Easiest Hacking Trick - Manipulation

We all, who have not yet tasted the fun of hacking, have a misconception that hacking needs a mastery on programming languages and logical skills.

But its neither truth nor false. 

Yes hacking needs these two weapons. But there is a style of hacking which requires a much required technical skilland more of a coning skill. This style is well known as MANIPULATION.

An example of the using the art of manipulation is illustrated in the following example. The facilitator of a live Computer Security Institute demonstration showed the vulnerability of help desks when he dialed up a phone company, got transferred around, and reached the help desk. "Who's the supervisor on duty tonight?" "Oh, it's Betty." "Let me talk to Betty." [He's transferred.] "Hi Betty, having a bad day?" "No, why?…Your systems are down." She said, "my systems aren't down, we're running fine." He said, "you better sign off." She signed off. He said, "now sign on again." She signed on again. He said, "we didn't even show a blip, we show no change." He said, "sign off again." She did. "Betty, I'm going to have to sign on as you here to figure out what's happening with your ID. Let me have your user ID and password." So this senior supervisor at the help desk tells him her user ID and password. In a few minutes a hacker is able to get information that might have taken him days to get by capturing traffic and cracking the password. It is much easier to gain information by social engineering than by technical methods. People are usually the weakest link in the security chain. A successful defense depends on having good policies in place and teaching employees to follow the policies. Social engineering is the hardest form of attack to defend against because a company can't protect itself with hardware or software alone.

PyKeylogger is an easy-to-use and

trust issues, since it is a short python 

script that you can easily examine. It is 

primarily designed for personal backup 

purposes, rather than stealth 

keylogging. Thus, it does not make 

explicit attempts to hide its presence 

from the operating system or the user. 

That said, the only way it is visible is 

that the process name shows up in the 

task list, so it is not immediately 

apparent that there is a keylogger on 

the system.

CTRL + F12′ keys simultaneously to 

bring up the Control Panel (default 

password is blank).

***Registry Hack to Tweak Your Windows PC*** Disable USB Devices

Microsoft Windows offers a feature-rich interface and several customization options that make it one of the most user friendly operating systems in the world. However, computer geeks would still love to hack the Windows Registry so as to add more extra features and functionalities to their operating system.

If you're one such geek who would like to customize Windows in your own way, here is a list of 8 interesting registry hacks that you need to try:

1. Disable USB Devices: 

Disabling USB ports can be a smart idea 

to add security to the computer. This 

can be really handy if the computer is 

on a public place where the chances of 

virus and other malware infection is 

really high. You can easily disable 

access to USB ports with the following 

registry hack: 

Open the Registry Editor (Start -> Run - 

> Type regedit and hit Enter) 

In the registry, navigate to the 

following key: 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Curr 

entControlSet\Services\UsbStor 

In the right-side pane, double-click on 

"Start". 

In the "Value data" field enter 4 and 

click on "OK". 

Close the Registry Editor and reboot. 

To enable USB devices, follow the same 

procedure as above except in the 

step-4 enter 3 in the "Value data" field. 

Works on Windows XP, Vista and 7.

START MENU in Windows8 - A confusing stop

Office 2010 Recommends Windows 8 Users to Click on the "Start Menu" Windows 8 is considered one of the most confusing Windows versions ever released by Microsoft, mostly because it doesn't comprise the traditional Start Menu available since the debut of Windows 95. Instead, Windows 8 comes with a Start Screen, but Office 2010 advises users to launch the built-in apps, such as Word, by clicking on the Start Menu. Now, we know that this has nothing to do with Microsoft and the Office 2010 installer was designed when Windows still had a Start Menu, but given the fact that Windows 8 adopters are confused by every minor modifications on their computers, such a thing would only make things worse. So, in case you've already deployed Windows 8 on your computer and you plan to use Office 2010 too, the installer is just outdated. Don't trust it, there's no such thing as a Start Menu in Windows 8!
