Penetration Testing Methodology🔹 The First Rule: Legal Scope Before any testing: Define scope clearly Get explicit permission 👉 Why it matters: Protects you legally Defines what systems you can test Prevents unauthorized access issues 2. Footprinting & Reconnaissance🔹 Definition The process of gathering information about a target before attacking 🔹 Types of Footprinting🟢 Passive Footprinting No direct interaction with the target Uses publicly available data 🔴 Active Footprinting Direct engagement with the target Higher risk of detection 🌐 OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) Collecting intelligence from: Public databases Websites Social platforms 3. Essential OSINT & Footprinting Tools🔹 Basic Network Tools nslookup DNS records and IP resolution whois Domain registration and ownership details 🔹 Search & Intelligence Platforms Shodan Discover exposed devices and services 🔹 Visual Intelligence Tool Maltego Maps relationships between: Domains Emails Infrastructure 🔹 Website Analysis HTTrack Clone websites for offline analysis 🔹 Advanced Recon Frameworks Recon-ng theHarvester 👉 Used for: Automated data collection Email harvesting Domain intelligence 4. Building a Safe Lab Environment🔹 Why You Need a Lab Avoid testing on real systems Practice safely and legally Simulate real-world attacks 🔹 Virtualization Platform Oracle VM VirtualBox 👉 Important: Install: Base platform Extension Pack 🔹 Operating System for Pentesting Kali Linux 👉 Includes: Pre-installed security tools Ready-to-use environment 5. Troubleshooting Setup Always: Follow guides specific to your OS (Windows / Linux / Mac) Check virtualization support (VT-x / AMD-V) Key Takeaways Always start with scope and p…","meta_description":"In this lesson, you’ll learn about: footprinting, OSINT, and setting up a penetration testing lab1.
