Comparative Analysis of Penetration Testing of LAN Using Various Attacks on Windows 7 & Ubuntu
Organizations use a large number of systems which holds sensitive data. So, its security has become a major issue for the organizations. One of the solutions for testing the security of an organization is penetration testing. It is a series of activities undertaken to identify and exploit security vulnerabilities. On a daily basis extremely skillful hackers violate the security and acquire the benefit of vulnerabilities to access the classified data. In this paper, for the purpose of comparison between Windows 7 and Ubuntu Operating systems, some attacks are implemented using Kali Linux to check the vulnerabilities of the operating systems connected in a network through Ethernet. Attacks performed are Denial of Service, Code injection attack, Database sniffing, Man in the Middle attack and DNS spoofing. Various graphs are plotted to show the comparison between operating systems for different attacks.
