Ethical Hacking Blog

In this blog post I will be explaining what I learned of the ninth session of the ethical hacking class. In this weeks session the topic I learned was about target exploitation and exploiting vulnerabilities. I learned what exploits were and why they were useful and about vulnerability research. Doing vulnerability research however requires a certain skill set, some of the skills required are Programming skills, such as C/C++, Perl, Python, and Assembly and Reverse Engineering. Exploits are mostly already listed in sites made public some of the site lists are http://www.securityfocus.com, http://osvdb.org, and http://www.packetstormsecurity.org . That was about all I learned in this weeks class session.
