Ncrack is a high-speed network authentication cracking tool. It was built to help companies secure their networks by proactively testing all their hosts and networking devices for poor passwords. Security professionals also rely on Ncrack when auditing their clients. Ncrack was designed using a modular approach, a command-line syntax similar to Nmap and a dynamic engine that can adapt its behaviour based on network feedback. It allows for rapid, yet reliable large-scale auditing of multiple hosts. Ncrack's features include a very flexible interface granting the user full control of network operations, allowing for very sophisticated bruteforcing attacks, timing templates for ease of use, runtime interaction similar to Nmap's and many more.

Hacking Bash History discusses about why the history mechanism of bash cannot be used as a monitoring/logging facility even with the strictest measures applied to secure it. A section of the text is dedicated to hacking the bash source code to interface it with syslog.

Locating Stateless Firewalls focuses on methods to discern between stateful and stateless firewalls. It discusses about how stateless firewalls can be further exploited due to possible misconfigurations and the result of RFC ambiguities.

This paper's purpose is to explain the often misunderstood nature of raw sockets. The driving force of writing this text was the curiosity of the author to learn the ins and outs of this powerful socket type also known as SOCK_RAW. What is going to be discussed here will *not* be another tutorial on how to hand-craft one's own packets. This topic has been overly discussed many times and one can find quite a few references on the net about it (mixter etc). What is going to be discussed here is what raw sockets do behind the scenes.
