Weekly Journal of Ethical Hacking Part 10 Lecture 8

Today we are going to learn about Social Engineering. In this topic, we will try to use human trust as our advantage to get information about them.

One of the way to do it is to make a a page that look exactly like a trusted website has. After entering their email and password, their data would be sent to us. In another word, we did an “Impersonation”. We can also get more information by either pretending as influential authority or just simply get to know them better.

First we would need to open the Social Engineering Toolkit (SET) first.

It will appear like this.

Before you can use this program, you will have to get through Terms of Service first.

After that, the main menu will appear and you can start to choose.

We will try to do Common User Passwords Profiler (CUPP). It’s used to find a valid password of target.

I used this link to installed CUPP into Kali Linux.

CUPP – How To Generate a Powerful Wordlist on Kali Linux ?

First, you would need to install the github with this command: git clone https://github.com/Mebus/cupp.git , then use this CUPP using python cupp.py -i. It will then show the Interactive Mode.

Conclusion: You can use SET to do Social Engineering hacking.
