Ethical Hacking

1. Metasploit - A free tool, one of the most popular cybersecurity tool around that allows you to locate vulnerabilities at different platforms. As a penetration tester, it pinpoints the vulnerabilities with Nexpose closed-loop integration using Top Remediation reports.
2. Acunetix WVS - It scans and finds out the flaws in a website that could prove fatal. This tool crawls a website and finds out malicious Cross-site Scripting, SQL injection, and other vulnerabilities.
3. Nmap - It's a free and open source hacking tool is the most popular port scanning tool around that allows efficient network discovery and security auditing. Used for a wide range of services, Nmap uses raw IP packets to determine the hosts available on a network, their services along with details, operating systems used by hosts, the type of firewall used, and other information.
4. Wireshark - It discovers vulnerability within a network and probes firewall rule-sets. Wireshark helps you to read live data from Ethernet, IEEE 802.11, PPP/HDLC, ATM, Bluetooth, USB, Token Ring, Frame Relay, FDDI, and others.
5. oclHashcat - Generally used for the password cracking. Hashcat is a CPU-based password cracking tool, oclHashcat is its advanced version that uses the power of your GPU.
6. Nessus Vulnerability Scanner - Using Nessus, one can scan multiple types of vulnerabilities that include remote access flaw detection, misconfiguration alert, denial of services against TCP/IP stack, preparation of PCI DSS audits, malware detection, sensitive data searches, etc.

Hello,
This is a golden era for IT and Digitization in India. Now, the government too are launching various Apps (BHIM or SWAYAM) and software for general public. Hence, to secure the data, programs and software, government is now spending a huge money on its security and hiring the bunch of Ethical Hackers. You need to be excellent in this field. After doing this course from the Nest College with passing grades, you can work in any government organization like; Ministry of information and broadcasting. Your designation could be, Computer Hacking Forensic Investigators, Licensed Penetration Tester, and Information Security Manager Etc. Also, you can earn a huge amount of money while working with government.

There are three main generally accepted categories of a hacker, each represented by a hat of a different colour: white, grey and black. All of them exploit weaknesses in computer systems and networks. The differences between them are their motivations. The most infamous is the black hat hackers, computer criminals epitomized by Hollywood, whose malicious activities serve their own ends ranging from financial gain to simply causing chaos. White hat hackers are usually those that carry out their craft with no apparent criminal intention in mind. And grey hats sit somewhere in the middle, often hacking into a system just to prove they can, but afterward usually notifying the vendor or owner of the weakness.
Most organisations believe that the act of authorising an ethical hacker to test a company's defences is enough legal protection to justify both sets of actions: firstly, the action of hiring an ethical hacker and secondly, to provide necessary cover for the questionable activities of the hacker, who in turn believes they are justified by the fact that they are acting in the best interests of the company who hired them.

Hello,
Bachelor of Computer Application is a regular three years course that is offered by many colleges in almost every city of India. This course is of course approved by the concerned universities in its content. There is also a system in place in each university to review and change the syllabus as per the requirement. At some places it's divided into six semesters while in some cases annual pattern is still followed. On the other hand "ethical hacker's course" is offered by dozens of computer learning that have mushroomed everywhere. Then this course is neither regulated by any statutory body nor is it regulated by industry body or association. At some places about 50 hours of learning makes one certified ethical hacker while in some institutions it takes up to 200 hours of learning. For a person who is enrolled for BCA, this hacker's course can be anytime without any trouble absolutely. It can be done online, by weekly classes, etc. As it is not a course conducted as per university norm, it can definitely be taken up simultaneously with BCA.

Hello,
I cannot predict whether the company will grant you an internship or not, but I can surely say that they will surely lodge a complaint against you and in no time, you will have the cops chasing you. To be an intern in a company, you need to respect the company's effort, the pain taken by the company owners to establish it, and its culture. Hacking into the company's website to seek an internship shows that you disrespect the company, threatening them to provide you a certain advantage and in this case, you are more likely to receive no as an answer even though how deserving you are.
Further, no company is interested in hiring hackers. They very well understand that hacking someone else's information could lead them to legal trouble, and they would not risk that. They are rather more interested in the counterpart of ethical hacking - known as Security Specialist Officers who deal with how they can secure the information and infrastructure of the company to ensure privacy and confidentiality of the information.
I hope this answers your question.

Hello,
You should not get too fascinated with ethical hacker as they show in movies. Most of the institutes provide just a basic fancy certification course under the name of ethical hacking, just to attract students and earn more.
I would rather recommend you to go for security specialist professionals. These jobs are highly payable and in high demand as most companies need them to protect their own data.
You can go to some reputed computer training institutes like NIIT, etc. You can go for Java courses followed by networking courses and CCNA/ CCNB (CISCO) courses. After this, you can also option for CEH (Certified Ethical Hacker) certification courses, if you wish to.
You need to ensure that you pursue these courses alongside a degree course, BCA, B.Tech, B.Sc, etc. for better outcome.
Further, in no circumstances can this profession be served as on a self-employment basis. Pursuing this profession needs grants and license from the government, which is not given to individuals and are only provided to a few companies who satisfy certain prerequisites.
I hope this answers your question.

Hello,
IT Security or Cyber Security is t e set of tools, knowledge and technology that is used to protect and guard systems and information from attack or from being hacked. Ethical hacking is one of the tool set used to test how secure the network is and is generally employed by the enterprise. In this with all the current functionality ethical hackers try to control the network to test if there is any flaws in the system, and later fix them.
There are many courses available for the same. Ethical Hacker tries to get into the network without using any organisation power and passwords. They detect if any foreign element can use the system without concern. Later this is documented and fixed by the system engineers.
