01 Penetration Testing Methodology and the CIA Triad Viz
Definition
CIA Triad
An information security model consisting of Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability.
Nmap (Network Mapper)
The industry-standard tool for port scanning, service identification, and target OS fingerprinting.
02 Web Application Security and OWASP Top 10
| Vulnerability | Brief Description |
|---|---|
| SQL Injection (SQLi) | Database query manipulation through unsanitized input. |
| Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) | Injection of malicious scripts into web pages viewed by other users. |
| LFI/RFI | Insertion of local or remote files into the server. |
| Broken Access Control | Failure to restrict user access to protected resources. |
03 Payload Manipulation with PayloadsAllTheThings
Reverse Shell
A technique where the target machine initiates a connection back to the attacker's machine, providing remote command-line access.
Key Takeaways
- 1The CIA Triad is the foundation of every security strategy.
- 2Thorough reconnaissance is key to successful penetration testing.
- 3OWASP Top 10 is the industry standard for web security.
