Best Tools For Ethical Hacking 2023

 Best Tools For  Ethical Hacking 2023

I would recommend to focus on learning about tools used for ethical hacking and information security purposes. Some examples include:

Nmap - a network exploration and management tool that can be used to discover hosts and services on a computer network.

Metasploit - a framework for developing and executing exploit code against a remote target machine.

Wireshark - a network protocol analyzer that can be used to examine network traffic and troubleshoot network-related issues.

Aircrack-ng - a suite of tools for wireless network auditing and cracking.

Nessus - a vulnerability scanner that can be used to identify and assess the vulnerabilities of networked systems.

Burp Suite - a suite of tools for performing web penetration testing.

Maltego - a tool for open-source intelligence and forensics, that allows to identify key relationships between data from various sources.


It's important to note that these tools are used for legal and ethical purposes, such as identifying vulnerabilities in systems and networks, and simulating attacks in order to test the security of a system.

FORTH:The Hacker’s Language

  FORTH:The Hacker’s Language Let’s start right off with a controversial claim: Forth is the hacker’s programming language. Coding in Forth is a little bit like writing assembly language, interactively, for a strange CPU architecture that doesn’t exist. Forth is a virtual machine, an interpreted command-line, and a compiler all in one. And all of this is simple enough that it’s easily capable of running in a few kilobytes of memory. When your Forth code is right, it reads just like a natural-language sentence but getting there involves a bit of puzzle solving. From Thinking FORTH Forth is what you’d get if Python slept with Assembly Language: interactive, expressive, and without syntactical baggage, but still very close to the metal. Is it a high-level language or a low-level language? Yes! Or rather, it’s the shortest path from one to the other. You can, and must, peek and poke directly into memory in Forth, but you can also build up a body of higher-level code fast enough that yo...
