A DESCRIPTIVE REVIEW OF DIFFERENT PENETRATION TESTING TOOLS AND METHODS

The  penetration  testing  is to authenticate  a recently discovered and approachable applications and networks, structure  that  are  vulnerable  to a certainty harm ,expose to danger and security  risk   which could reveal unauthorized  access to resources. Penetration testing is a series of actions or steps to reproduce all methods taken by attackers to obtain a system. A penetration tester is the attested , programmed and effective technique  used  to find the  vulnerabilities   in an  attempt  to  accomplish  an  interruption  into  host, network or  application resources. The penetration testing can determine the internal   and external resources. In this paper  we  implement  an nmap, cain, abel, wireshark  penetration testing tools  that examine  the  vulnerabilities  such as  a open ,close ports  and also the method to penetrate a individual operating system . Security professionals across the globe usually address these security risks by Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT).
