- Professional Definition:
crime conducted via the Internet or some other computer network
- Extra-Professional Definition:
Crimes committed using Electronic devices as criminalize tools
Crimes committed using Computer systems as criminalized tools
Crimes committed using Social Engineering as a criminalized means of gathering information
- Red Team Field Manual (Book on attack methodology)
- Blue Team Handbook (Book on defense methodology)
- Inside the Linux Kernel (Book on Linux core system)
- Inside Windows Debugging (Book on Windows systems and flaws)
- Insider Attack and Cyber Security: Beyond the Hacker (Advances in Information Security)
- 10 Unix\Linux Servers (Standard Duty)
I7 (Eye Seven) processor
Removable Hard Drives (>750 GB)
VMPlayer Virtualization Software
Various Software Platforms
Windows 95, 98, ME, XP, 7, 8, Server 2003, Server 20XX
Linux Fedora, Ubuntu, CENTOS
Mac OS X, X.5, X.6, X.7 (Hackintosh, if needed)
- These are the courses that the Virtual lab can be used for.
Study of Operating Systems
Study of Computer Networking
Computer/Network Security
Hacking Essentials (What is hacking)
Computer Forensics
Database Introduction, SQL Introduction, Database Management
Others as designed and needed
- The removable drives will support
Rapid Drive Replacement for Labs
Clean Image Storage
The guarantee of fresh replacement images for new student projects.
- There will be incurred cost on:
Servers (Hardware)
Hard drives (Hardware)
Network (Installation and Configuration)
Switches and Routers
Support Software (Microsoft Licenses, and Apple Licenses)
- In Cyber Crime, The attacker always prepares for an attack by practicing the attack and noting good attack vectors
- Studying Cyber Crime from the view point of the attacker and the attacked.
- Forensics Practice and study is needed for the understanding of attack vectors
- Database and Database Management knowledge is needed (MySQL, PHP, Oracle, Apache, PhpMyAdmin, and others)
- OS Study and Knowledge is needed (Windows 95-Windows 10, Linux “most distributions”, UNIX System V to BSD and other variants) and not to forget Apple OS X
- The Cyber Crime Virtual Lab will need development this includes
Testing (Functionality of components)
User experience (Getting over the learning curve)
System Adjustment (what works with what)
- Time to iron out system bugs
For both “Hacker” and “Tracker”
To produce valuable useable results
- Same Fraternity different Section
Hackers and Trackers hang out with each other along with other computer enthusiast.
What are Hackers?
What are Trackers?
What are Crackers?
- Why Cyber Security as a Career?
Computer\Network Technology under the hood
Want to be a COWBOY?
- What is the relationship to Homeland Security?
- What hat do you want to ware?
White Hat (Good Guy???)
Black Hat (Bad Guy???)
Gray Hat (Ugly Guy???)
- White Hat
Ethical Hacker
Uses Hacking skills to benefit companies or government
Uses same skills as the Black Hat and Grey Hat
- Black Hat
Criminal Hacker (also called a “Cracker”)
Uses Hacking skills to benefit self, and to cause problems: (terrorism, profiteering, bragging rights)
- Grey Hat
A Hacker who has the benefit of having tendencies of both White and Black
Uses Hacking skills for both good and bad reasons
Usually has better people skills than both Black or White Hats.
- 1) Enumeration of Network (Determining if a network or system is worth attacking)
- 2) Reconnaissance of Network (Exploring the possible weaknesses in a network or system)
- 3) Probing network or system found attack vectors
- 4) False Attack to determine response time of Blue Team Procedures
- 5) Attack on network and or System assets
- 6) Covering of tracks
- 1) Seek a good computer or electronics school (Physical or on-line) (You have done this already)
- 2) Take some home study or internet courses (Technology based)
- 3) Learn about how computers work (Hardware and Software)
- 4) Learn how networks work (Physical and Virtual)
- 4) Learn data and network Forensics (Use of equipment and systems)
- 5) Learn about Hacking and Hacking Countermeasures (Use of equipment and systems)
