Now We move further in scanning phase and now we will scan the systems for vulnerabilities i.e finding the weakness in security ,OS,database and so on..
What is Vulnerability???
As I have Told in First class that Vulnerability is weakness in the network,system,database etc… We can call vulnerability as the Loophole i.e through which victim can be attacked.. We first analyze the loophole and then try to use it to best to Hack the System of victim or oraganisation or website…
