Enumeration
Enumeration is a process in ethical hacking, which Interact with the system and interrogate it to obtain the necessary information. Involves the discovery and exploitation of vulnerabilities.
Enumeration Techniques:
Name of Term | Description of term |
---|---|
Windows enumeration | It helps to get system information. |
Windows user account enumeration | It is process to check the current user. |
NetBIOS enumeration | Configure IP address (default gateway, subnet, DNS, domain controller). |

NTP enumeration | Using the NTP enumeration, you can collect information such as a list of servers connected to the NTP server, IP addresses, system names, and operating systems |
SMTP enumeration | SMTP enumeration allows us to identify valid users on the SMTP server. |
Brute forcing Active Directory | In a brute force attack, an attacker gains access to your system just by repeatedly logging in with multiple passwords until they guess the right password. |
Ethical Hacking Cheatsheet
Ethical hacking includes authorized attempts to gain unauthorized access to computer systems, applications, or data. Ethical hacking requires replicating the strategies and behaviors of malicious attackers. This practice helps identify security vulnerabilities, So they can be fixed before malicious attackers can exploit them.
