How To Hack Into Computers Through
WiFi
The internet is ever growing and you and I are truly pebbles in a vast ocean of
information. They say what you don’t know can’t hurt you. When it comes to the
Internet believe quite the opposite. On the Internet there a millions and

upon millions of users, there’s you.In this tutorial i am going to show
you how to to access someone's facebook, youtube, and many other accounts which
is using the same WiFi as you.
You need:
Mozilla Firefox
Firesheep -
A Firefox extension that demonstrates HTTP session hijacking attacks.
WinPcap -
WinPcap is an open source library for packet capture and network analysis for
the Win32 platforms. It includes a kernel-level packet filter, a low-level
dynamic link library (packet.dll), and a high-level and system-independent
library.
Step 1: Install WinPcap then drag the
Firesheep add-on, and put it on the Firefox icon. Firefox will open and will
ask you to install the add on. Install it and restart Firefox.
Step 2: Open the add-on (You can do it by clicking on View ->
Sidebar -> Firesheep), then click on Start Capturing and it'll start
capturing, and as soon as somebody logs in any account it'll show up the logs,
and then you can access their account.
Simple, but functional and VERY

How To View Saved Wifi Password In Android
How To View Saved Wifi Passwords In Android
I love working from cafes, especially the ones with free Wi-Fi. Nothing better than working with a bit of white noise around and writing with a hot cup of coffee by my side. That’s the reason I have saved Wi-Fi passwords of many cafes in my locality. However, sometimes you don’t go to these places alone and are accompanied by your friends who might as well need the Wi-Fi access. If you have your laptop with you then it’s not that difficult to make it show the passwords. But on a phone, it isn’t that straightforward. And the chances of our phones being with us than our laptops is significantly more.

Find Who Is Connected To Your Wi-Fi
Find Who is Connected to Your Wi-Fi
Worried of slow connections on using Wi-Fi? Do you think somebody might been using your Wi-Fi connection? How will it be if you been able to find who is connected to your Wi-Fi with (or without) your know?
Yes, it is Possible for you to find who is using your Wi-Fi connection.
Lets Get Started:
There are two methods available for you to find the connected devices with your router.
1) Finding Devices Connected to WiFi Connection
Via Router:
By default, all the router provides with this feature. For that, we need to login to your router’s admin panel and move over to Connected Devices. Your Router configuration page can provide you so much of information about your WiFi connection including the number of people connected to your WiFi connection.
The router’s admin panel differs with each model, and here it is for netgear router.
2) Using Tools(softwares)-the easiest method:
If you could not follow with the first method, then this trick will help you to find out the connected devices.
Download and Install (any one of the below tools)
• Wireless Network Watcher
• Connectify
In this method you will be using a small tool to scan your WiFi connection for the connected devices, Press Scan
As soon as you run and scan the tool you will get the complete list of devices connected to your WiFi connection along with their assigned IP address and Mac Address.
By this way you will need to find who is connected to your Wi-Fi.
Incase if you find any other ip and a MAC address apart from yours, you can block that particular MAC address from getting connected to your connection.
Secure your Router
Configure your router:
Goto your router’s official website and check with your model number for a firmware update. If there is an update for your model, then download and install it. By doing this, your router will have the latest firmware thus resulting in less attacks and security.
Find the list of Connected Devices:
Look out for this option on your router interface. A button named link or attached devices will take you to the list. This list can be seen on the configuration page of WiFi or on any status page which will bring out complete information about the users of the router.

STEPS NECESSARY TO BECOME AN ETHICAL HACKER
Hacking
is an engaging field but it is surely not easy. To become a hacker one has to
have an attitude and curiosity of learning and adapting new skills. You must
have a deep knowledge of computer systems, programming languages, operating
systems and the journey of learning goes on and on. Some people think that a
hacker is always a criminal and do illegal activities but they are wrong.
Actually many big companies hire hackers to protect their systems and
information and are highly paid. These are 12 most important steps necessary to
become a hacker.
Code in C language
C
programming is the base of learning UNIX/LINUX as this operating system is
coded in C programming which makes it the most powerful language as compared to
other programming languages. C language was developed by Dennis Ritchie in late
1970’s. To become a hacker you should master C language.
Learn UNIX/LINUX
UNIX/LINUX
is an open source operating system which provides better security to computer
systems. It was first developed by AT&T in Bell labs and contributed a lot
in the world of security. You should install LINUX freely available open source
versions on your desktops as without learning UNIX/LINUX, it is not possible to
become a hacker.
Learn to code in more than one Programming Language
It is important for a
person in the hacking field to learn more than one programming. There are many
programming languages to learn such as Python, JAVA, C++. Free eBooks,
tutorials are easily available online.
Learn Networking Concepts
Another
important and essential step to become a hacker is to be good at networking
concepts and understanding how the networks are created. You need to know the
differences between different types of networks and must have a clear
understanding of TCP/IP and UDP to exploit vulnerabilities (loop holes) in
system.
Understanding what LAN, WAN, VPN, Firewall is also
important.
You must have a clear
understanding and use of network tools such as Wire shark, NMAP for packet
analyzing, network scanning etc.
Learn More Than One Operating Systems
It is essential for a
hacker to learn more than one operating system. There are many other Operating
systems apart from Windows, UNIX/LINUX etc. Every system has a loop hole,
hacker needs it to exploit it.
Learn Cryptography
To
become a successful hacker you need to master the art of cryptography.
Encryption and Decryption are important skills in hacking. Encryption is widely
done in several aspects of information system security in authentication,
confidentiality and integrity of data. Information on a network is in encrypted
form such as passwords. While hacking a system, these encrypted codes needs to
be broken, which is called decryption.
Learn more and more about hacking
Go
through various tutorials, eBooks written by experts in the field of hacking.
In the field of hacking, learning is never ending because security changes
every day with new updates in systems.
Experiment A Lot
After
learning some concepts, sit and practice them. Setup your own lab for
experimental purpose. You need a good computer system to start with as some
tools may require powerful processor, RAM etc. Keep on Testing and learning
until you breach a system.
Write Vulnerability
Vulnerability is the weakness,
loop hole or open door through which you enter the system. Look for
vulnerabilities by scanning the system, network etc. Try to write your own and
exploit the system.
Contribute To Open Source Security Projects
An open source computer
security project helps you a lot in polishing and testing your hacking skills.
It’s not a piece of cake to get it done. Some organizations such as MOZILLA,
APACHE offer open source projects. Contribute and be a part of them even if
your contribution is small, it will add a big value to your field.
Continue never ending Learning
Learning is the key to
success in the world of hacking. Continuous learning and practicing will make
you the best hacker. Keep yourself updated about security changes and learn
about new ways to exploit systems
Join Discussions and meet hackers
Most important for a
hacker is to make a community or join forums, discussions with other hackers
worldwide, so that they can exchange and share their knowledge and work as a
team. Join Facebook groups related to hacking where you can get more from
experts.
