The Hackers News Exposed: UNIX Bullshits on Social Engineering

Eunuchs Root Claims UNIX Fakes News

Read About the Face Off Story of The Hackers News Which Bullied Readers So Far.......

Dear readers, after a long break I am here. Hope you will enjoy this article on today's most sensational topic SOCIAL ENGINEERING.

So lets start...

Well today I have seen on one of the blog (A self claimed highest traffic hacking news blog/portal) with 2 articles on SOCIAL ENGINEERING. As they are calming very huge traffic on their blog, I am very confused that how they can get that much amount of traffic.

You can check it your self from various online resources that there daily hits is not more then 10 HITS.

http://www.yandalo.com/www.thehackernews.com

I am giving you below 3 link. All the contents and even the pic displayed has been copy pasted AS IT IS from these link & all the below articles was published 6-7 months ago.

LINK-1: FBI details worst social networking cyber crime problems

I have feeling of sympathy and sorrow for the misfortunes of others your news skills you are probably the slur on news and news reporting. All the articles you have posted on social engineering are way back stale stories. You have spoke about all high things unix, these are the things imposed by an intelligence authorities to misguide people like you. No intelligence has ever successful if they do not adopt social engineering on their target or criminal.

According to ALEXA - The Hackers News is an online Hacker News Organisation. We propagate news specifically related to information security threats, Hacking threads and issues from all over the world

http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/thehackernews.com

Below is the comparison graph between www.freehacking.net & the hackers new bogus blog. Well This comparison is only because, even my graphs are so height and getting 1000 times more traffic. I am getting almost 1000 - 2000 hits per day. When my blog was on its peak, the total hits were 10,000 per day (2-3 months back).

There are 2,303,704 sites with a better three-month global Alexa traffic rank than Thehackernews.com. The site is based in the US. We estimate that 59% of visitors to this site come from India, where it has attained a traffic rank of 127,758, and the site has been online for at least five years.

Now lets talk about the hit counter they have configured showing hits. Well every bloggers and even any one who has a little knowledge of HTML ( which almost all hackers already have the same) is aware about this TRICK. This hit counter is editable.

Below is the HIT counter I just installed on my new blog. I have edited both the hit counters and unique page loads. Now to every visitor it will show that there were already 25,011 hits on my blog, but in actual it was a BIG ZERO. Now you got the point I want to say he he he heeee..!!

Regarding If social engineering I would like to warn those fake people that, if it is crime then you should be behind the bar for misguiding people with providing false ratings and info. Secondly you should be prosecuted for having multiple ids and fake approach. You are clamming to be partner with so many high profile organization, but NOTHING HAS BEEN MENTIONED ON THEIR OFFICIAL WEBSITE. Well don't worry baby....I understand. When you meet me next time I will recommend your blog name to all the those organization with whom you are clamming to be a PARTNERS...he he he he he..This remind me all fake self claimed ethical hackers...LOLZZXX..very funny.

Well its enough proofs with proper DOSE for this time..regarding real SOCIAL ENGINEERING then lemme clear you this fact that the study shows so far cases solved by social engineering are 70% and 12 % by third degree, 8% on the base of information and 20% cases either solved by the confession of accused or they go under trial for years and years. Narco analysis test is nothing but a kind of social engineering. The brain of criminal or accused is conditioned towards probe before they are put under any machine or tests.

Social engineering is a very huge subject which is taught to marketing and communication students so that they can convince the client and get business. Earlier days even today social engineering has altogether in computer security, social engineering is a term that describes a non-technical kind of intrusion that relies heavily on human interaction and often involves tricking other people to break normal security procedures. A social engineer runs what used to be called a "con game" sometimes “game to crack a con”.

Now just have look on the above pic...wonderful example of social engineering. Lemme explain to all my fellow readers that when ever a person using social engineering to break into a computer network would try to gain the confidence of someone who is authorized to access the network in order to get them to reveal information that compromises the network's security. They might call the authorized employee with some kind of urgent problem; social engineers often rely on the natural helpfulness of people as well as on their weaknesses. Appeal to vanity, appeal to authority, and old-fashioned eavesdropping are typical social engineering techniques.

Now a days even if you have to propose a girl you need to have social engineering.

Another aspect of social engineering relies on people's inability to keep up with a culture that relies heavily on information technology. Social engineers rely on the fact that people are not aware of the value of the information they possess and are careless about protecting it. Frequently, social engineers will search dumpsters for valuable information, memorize access codes by looking over someone's shoulder (shoulder surfing), or take advantage of people's natural inclination to choose passwords that are meaningful to them but can be easily guessed. Security experts propose that as our culture becomes more dependent on information, social engineering will remain the greatest threat to any security system. Prevention includes educating people about the value of information, training them to protect it, and increasing people's awareness of how social engineers operate. But now a day’s latest tools and technologies have grown in tremendous fashion, with which you can get into someone’s computer or system anonymously without his or her knowledge, the news you gave needs strong amendments as the law related to the subject.

If Social networking site users are hackers and you are hardcore hacker’s news provider then you should have basic sense off knowing that no hacker is vulnerable to social engineering.

You have made every one victim to the schemes due to the higher level of trust typically displayed while using your stupid cheap web sites. Practice what you preach miss or Mr or probably a gay you Unix, I can reach your home in a few hours from here and disclosed can disclose your facts to world.

Just give me one answer that when I reach up to you home, where will you hide your face? Smartness is good over smartness is curse. Correct the news and publish don’t misguide people. Else it may become eunuchs root.

Wait for the next post on the revelation of The Hackers News Exposed

Linux vs MAC: Which is Better OS for Hackers

Post- by Haimant Butz

Now a days there is big discussions over the usages of Mac and Linux, specially the script kiddies are very much queries bout usages of Mac and contented Linux-on-Mac .Just Look Around you will notice the surge in use of Apple hardware and Mac OS X. Since it is based so solidly on Unix, yet with an attractive GUI on top, OS X has appealed to a broad range of programmers and technical writers; especially the kind who have no affection for the Wintel way of doing things. Many of them stuck with Mac OS X because it worked. Lots wanted to explore alternatives, and install their own choice of OS. Your typical modern Mac comes with all the UNIX goodness you ever need, there are a bunch of Linux PPC distributions that you can, if you feel the need, install on your Apple hardware. By doing this please be sure about what you are doing to your computer.

Especially, when your mother wants to see you as top rank programmer at Google instead of checking others skills question your potentials. Many of us assume that Mac OS X is essentially desktop Linux. This is true to some extent, but the differences between Mac OS X and true Linux distributions are important ones. Whereas Mac OS X can only be customized within the constraints placed upon it by Apple. Linux can be customized to an extraordinary degree, with the right knowledge. Generally Mac OS X requires Apple hardware. Linux is the same whether it’s running on a PowerBook, a PC, or even in your mind (to check someone’s skills) . So many anonymous hackers pounce at my chat window to ask “hey you use Linux or Mac”? I feel like laughing. The other day somebody was bothering me too much over the usages of Linux and Mac. I have a principle; my grandmother who is an IAS taught me some beautiful things in life. She often uses to tell me share your skills or knowledge with such a person who is there to receive, that will give you wisdom. Otherwise if someone wants to check your skills and make sure that you are learned or not, then just empty your brains and stand at the receiving end. When you become receiver you gain. Do not display your skills at unwanted place and to an anonymous. Anyways passing through the test given by any anonymous will continue as never ending head hitting. While chatting on face book you can easily prove you are a fool a Noob and dumb. Which is what exactly I do when somebody tries taking me for jolly ride over hacking issues, I pass that bug to other chat window and relax. The reason is that the friends chatting with you are of same community and he will prove as blessing to communicate other person that he or she is Dumb.

I tried directly telling the other person that “ look I am dump and do not know much about hacking or tools, exploits, rooting, shell uploading, coding, defacing or taking control over cPanel. The moment I say this I get it back with the question “oh jaan this is what is your true colour? I never knew displays of skills are quite colorful. Aah! Leave it, in short what I want to say is sharing your knowledge with right kind of people or at rite time at place is worth otherwise its nothing but time waste. Because the other person is not going to give you any certification, he will be even more aggressive. You will waste you valuable time and energy over proving yourself to a wrong person. This is part of social engineering, and I am sure no classes will give you this awareness.

Now let us come to the fight between Mac and Linux. Mac OS X has made great strides in bringing a Unix-based environment to a consumer user-base, and has influenced Linux developers in the process, but it should not be treated in the same way. It remains a commercial, proprietary system, as good as the other complimentary technologies. It also depends on how familiar you are with Linux, if you run Mac OS X you are not in a position to delve into its heart and meddle with its innermost workings. You are simply messing around with your Linux kernel?

Let me site another example, the general assumptions says Mac OS X is easy to use; Linux is hard, especially for newbies. Well, my friend had a Linux desktop (it was Lycoris running on an old PC, in case you're wondering), and then my Mac OS X desktop. My friend had ever used Windows computers before was damn impressed with Lycoris. Because so many Linux distros and window environments have made such an effort to make former Windows users feel comfortable, some of them look so much like Windows as to be almost indistinguishable. Windows users see them and they do feel comfortable. Everything is where they expect it to be, everything behaves the way they are used to it behaving. They feel relaxed about using something that feels familiar. There are so many confusions, but as a lifelong Windows user, Mac OS X was completely alien, but consumer-level Linux felt almost the same.

So for running Linux on Mac hardware: (1) It is far more customizable for those who care and know how, and (2) it feels more like Windows than Mac OS X does, for those who care and have no wish to know how.

Mac OS X is built of two components: Darwin, the BSD-based UNIX underpinnings, and Aqua, the beautiful graphical user interface .

However, there are other operating systems and other work environments that can be installed on an Apple system, based on popular open source Linux applications. Read my next post on how one can cheat or hack with any kind of applications, if you are a good hacker. You need to keep your mouth shut and work on target and Make up your own mind. Don’t keep on barging at others windows tasting their skills like a lunatic ass; by doing this you are displaying your own mental status.

There are many hackers come up saying please find the vulnerability in so and so site, if you refuse they might proveke you.. but Please stay away without knowing the intentions of hacker, without prior permission of site owner never apply your social skills on such issues. By refusing such offers you might be named do do but I am sure you will be always remain risk free in life.

Myth About Indian Hackers: True Story Behind Underground Hackers

Myth About Indian Hackers: True Story Behind Underground Hackers

GUEST POST BY Vaidehi Sachin

Cyber war is nothing but an eye wash, actually speaking cyber war is a created hype by some old kids, in which one thinks himself a soldier and others as toy guns. And the computer as his Kingdome, little knowledge he possess is his wisdom, and tools he posses for hacking are his arms and ammunitions. The so called cyber war soldiers are living in their own imaginary world and each one of them thinks he is superior amongst them. By giving too much importance to this particular term ‘Cyber War” creates nothing but a fear in common public and hackers aspiring this carrier as his living and passion. These so called war participants are nothing but notorious small time criminals. They should be punished. If one particular group of hackers is clutched then maximum can be traced and the authentic hackers can sustain with integrity. its hight time to face of these disguised hackers and expose thenm to common masses.

The hacking rivalry between Pakistani and Indian hackers is known to almost everyone. Pakistani hackers are known to be most unethical hacker by Indian hackers. This cyber war is never going to stop. Because the group of hackers those who are hand in gloves with each other are making this trait as publicity gimmick. It’s just as you scratch my back and I scratch yours. This has infected several countries across the globe. In the age of Technology wars the battles are not fought by weapons or atomic powers but it’s on raise through the advent of Information Technology, the pace of cyber wars between Pakistan and India have also been increased. All these low profile hackers are either engineering students, or just school going kiddos those who learned hacking from various tools openly provided on search engine. It’s itch in them to create a horrifying aura and over hype the meager issues. One particular group from north is doing this. I know after publishing this article they may create trouble for me as their basic instincts are destructive. I give damn because I am blessed with best hacker friends and a brother to tackle these goons. Actually Information is a source of learning. But unless it is organized, processed, and available to the right people in a format for decision making, it is a burden, not a benefit.

Actually the genuine Cyber wars between the two countries first started in May 1998, when India conducted its nuclear tests. Soon after India officially announced the test, a group of hackers called milw0rm broke into the Bhabha Atomic Research Center web site and posted anti-India and anti-nuclear messages. This hacking had an intention to protest the deal. Recently it seems like a Cyber war has become publicity tool between Pakistani Hackers and Indian hackers. The irony is that they use country flags to display the bonding of love for own country. If by hacking Indian sites Pakistani hackers are doing crime then by doing the same even Indian hackers are criminals. In the recent past when I started interacting with hackers for my forthcoming magazine “cyber Ghosts”, I met different characters. They have got nothing to do with your country; they have got nothing to say expect displaying their credentials as some great hacker. Some groups have made mockery of this little knowledge, they peruse schools and collages conduct seminars, charge the students and make big money by making this subject a taboo. Young minds nowhere take any participation in securing system they just get attracted to word hacking, the practice starts with hacking girlfriends mail, password, then school website domain. And this extends in to hacking all wanted and unwanted arenas. By conducting these kind of unofficial seminars, ( I am calling it unofficial because so far government recognized such training centers are hardly in existence} private so called ethical hacking training camps are mushrooming in every part of India. Blogging on learn hacking is another blot to this black trait. If you have glance at all theses so called sites and blogs, they all somewhat similar. Hardly will you find something authentic. This particular group of hackers are worst than terrorists. They are misguiding youth of this country. They themselves have divided in to various groups, Andhra hackers, south hackers, Nepali hackers, Punjabi hackers, Maharashtra hackers, tiger hackers (from Kolkata) etc etc.. There is no harmony amongst them; they all are Indians but still big rivals to each other. Some of them even created Cyber army.

The history says this all started when IGCOE Hacker from India hacked Punjabi Pakistani Police official website. In Response to it Pakistani Hackers hacked India's several official websites. Cyber war has gone in so deep and hidden in horrifying layers. This techno war has taken a cruel shape. There are so many Indian hackers working for Pakistan, and at the same time there are many Pakistani hackers just committed to their work having to bad or malicious intention against India. For me these Indian hackers are the biggest threat for my country. Tracing these hackers is not a big issue but it’s difficult because they are operating from other countries. But the question remains here is why Government has failed to track down Indian unethical or Pak agencies agent hackers of India? There should be a combing operation to eradicate this evil. As per Indian constitution hacking is crime let it be ethical or unethical. The irony is that other nations are using these hackers to sabotage neighboring countries as well as protect their own cyber world. Actually if given a chance or If Indian hackers taken into confidence they can create wonders by protecting entire cyber network of India because India has most efficient hackers on the globe. But unfortunately they have gone haywire. I would like to site an example here buying domain is not difficult, the demine owner keeps all the security procedures, he posses all panels with him. Key panel excess is always with a demine owner. Let any password or admin go here and there but server’s crucial info is always with the domain owner and every activity is traced here. One can hack http but not the domain WHICH IS EASILY RECOVERABLE. The hacking is done on very superficial level of these particular websites, but hundreds of such low profile sites are hacked and yet not recovered. Why? Who is doing it? Who the supporters are? It’s a big mystery of this hacking industry.

No doubt Both Pakistani and Indian websites got hacked which means that both the countries suffered security threats. This battle may result in loss of innocent people who are not the part of war. So called great hackers website was hacked In December 2009 it was Fadia’s business site, hackingmobilephones.com was hacked by a spammer promoting pharmaceutical products for erectile dysfunction. The question remains here is why this so called “INDIA’S BEST HACKER” couldn’t protect his site from other hackers? If given a chance and assurance to capable hackers of this country they can do much much… more than Fadia. Its high time Government should take help of these hackers to protect our own cyber network and use them as cyber army. The recent Independence Day was a nightmare for some of the webmasters and website owners of both India and Pakistan. The attack was started by Pakistani hackers defacing some Indian websites on 14th August; this was followed by counter attack from Indian Hackers. In the counter attack from both the sides’ lot of websites were hacked and defaced. The attack was started by Pakistani groups called Pak Cyber Army and PakHaxors, these groups have defaced around 10-20 websites .the counter attack was lead by Indian hackers called Indishell and Indian Cyber Army who are claiming to deface more than 2000 Pakistani websites but Zone-h data confirms the 1000+ figure. Indian hackers always thought they were too sophisticated to fall into the hands of the rough cops in this country, whom various human rights groups routinely accuse of brutality. Why should government and police is so merciless with the hackers? They want to be on the official side of Internet security now but they are scared because they are treated as a criminal then it leaves an unpleasant taste. Indian hackers don’t have a strong united community, so it’s difficult to tell if there is a drop in activity may be that’s the reason the hackers are lying low. Nobody wants to mess again.
