What Kind of a Hacker Should you Be?

Many people want to be hackers. But what type of hacker do you want to be? This article will help you choose! What kind of hacker are you right now? Here are the MAIN types of hackers hidden in the world today....

Black Hat Hackers
Black Hat

A Black Hat Hacker (also known as a cracker) is someone who hacks without authorazation or permission. Black Hat Hackers are usually solitary, even though some work in groups. As a team, they can be deadly. Black Hat Hackers usually D-DOS websites in groups. There methods can include Vandalism, Identity Theft, Site Defacing, and other Illegal Techniques. Names for Black Hat Hackers include things like"Cyber-Demons."

~~Superman White Hat Hackers Superman~~


White Hat Hackers are the "Angels" of hacking. They are mainly know as "Ethical Hackers." Ethical Hacking is an actual career in the world today. To be a White Hat Hacker you must be certified. They hack for good, not for bad. They perform tests on security by using certified methods that would be illegal if used in the hands of a Black Hat Hacker. This side opposes Black Hat Hackers. This side may be small, but it is still powerful. White Hat Hackers are becoming an increasing threat to Black Hat Hackers. White Hat Hackers usually work in groups. They are very sucessful because they understand what they're trying to fix (because they have experience with the problem). Other names for White Hat Hackers include "Cyber-Gods and Hacking-Angels."

Ninja Grey Hat Hackers Ninja


Grey Hat Hackers are both good and bad. They do bad hackingHehe for malicious reasons and good hacking as well.Biggrin They help and harm. Many people are Grey Hat Hackers. They are barely any other names for Grey Hat Hackers. They are just "typical" hackers but still potential threats.

Confused Which Hacker should I Become?


Make sure you know what your getting yourself into. Hackers are caught sometimes. And when they are, they are charged and usually go to jail for a short period of time (unless you are a CERTIFIED White Hat Hacker).

Maybe you are not ready? It's your choice. Mabye you will decide to hack only a little (in your school for example). Whatever it is, it's your choice. Choose wisely!

I dont want to go to Jail! What is the best path for me?


It's pretty hard for you to get caught but there is still a good chance of being caught hacking. If you dont want to take this risk, I would highly recommend becoming a White Hat Hacker (like me Thumbsup).

But you should get certified! There are many courses you can take to become a Ethical Hacker (White Hat Hacker). But, beware! There are many scams (made by Black Hat Hackers) meant to steal info and eliminate White Hat Hackers (or those trying to become White Hat Hackers)!

Then how would you know which course for White Hat Hacking is real and safe? Well, I have gone ahead and found a secure website to become a Ethical/White Hat Hacker! Here it is:

Other types of Hackers


"Wait a minute! I thought there were only 3 types of hackers! Black Hat, White Hat, and Grey Hat Hackers!"

Well, there is only 3 types of hackers. But there are sub-categories in these 3 hacking groups. Below are some "Ranks" hackers can get:
__

Elite Hacker - A rank meant to describe the the most skilled of hackers. New hacking methods are usually known be these hackers first.
__

Script Kiddie - A rank that describes a hacker that uses tools made by others and understand little about true hacking.
__

Neophyte - A rank that describes a person that is new to hacking and has no experience with hacking and/or technology.
__

Hacktivist - This is really not a rank to be proud of. It is a name very closely related to "Terrorist." Hacktivists are people who hack to get a message out about religion, ideaology, and political message. These types of hackers usually D-DOS websites to get there message out.
__

Green Hat Hackers- Hackers who hack to make money. They do not worry about if their methods are legal or illegal, they just hack for a client to make Money.

THE ULTIMATE BEGINNER'S GUIDE TO HACKING AND PHREAKING




Anyway, for those of you who are wondering "what do the letters "LOA" under his handle stand for?" Well, LOA stands for Legion Of the Apocalypse, which is a group of elite hackers and phreakers in my area. The current members of LOA are:
Revelation, Phreaked Out, Phreak Show, Logik Bomb, and Silicon Toad

I started LOA when I discovered that there were many good hackers and phreakers in my area. I thought that an organized group of hackers and phreakers would accomplish much more than an individual could by himself. Thus the Legion Of the Apocalypse was formed and has been around for a while since. Our main goal is to show the public what hacking and phreaking is all about and to reveal confidential information to the hacking/phreaking community so that we can learn more about computers, telephones, electronics, etc. We are hoping to get our own World Wide Web page soon, so keep an eye out for it. It will contain all of the hacking, phreaking, computer, telephone, security, electronics, virus, and carding information that you could possibly want.

Also, if some of you are wondering why I chose the word Revelation as my handle, well, Revelation means revealing or unveiling, which is exactly what I intend to do as a hacker/phreaker. I intend to reveal all the information that I can gather while hacking and phreaking.

Anyway, I wrote this document because I have read all the files that I could get my hands on and noticed that there has never been a really good file written that guided beginning hackers and phreakers step by step.

When I began hacking and started reading all of the beginner files, I still had many un-answered questions. My questions were eventually answered, but only through LOTS of reading and practice. In this file, I hope to give basic step by step instructions that will help beginning hackers and phreakers get started. But, DO NOT think that this will save you from having to read alot. If you want to be a hacker/phreaker, reading is the most important thing you can do. You will have to do ALOT of reading no matter what.

This document was intended for beginners, but it can also be used as a reference tool for advanced hackers and phreakers.

Please distribute this document freely. Give it to anyone that you know who is interested in hacking and/or phreaking. Post it on your World Wide Web page, Ftp sites, and BBS's. Do whatever you want with it as long as it stays UNCHANGED.

As far as I know, this is the most complete and in depth beginners guide available, that is why I wrote it. Also, I plan to have new volumes come out whenever there has been a significant change in the material provided, so keep an eye out for them. LOA is planning on starting an on-line magazine, so look for that too. And we are also starting a hacking business. Owners of businesses can hire us to hack into their systems to find the security faults. The name of this company is A.S.H. (American Security Hackers), and it is run by LOA. If you have any questions about this company, or would like to hire us, or just want security advice, please E-Mail A.S.H. at: "revelationmail@usa.pipeline.com". Readers can also send comments and questions to this address.

I. HACKING

A. What is hacking?

Hacking is the act of penetrating computer systems to gain knowledge about the system and how it works.

Hacking is illegal because we demand free access to ALL data, and we get it. This pisses people off and we are outcasted from society, and in order to stay out of prison, we must keep our status of being a hacker/phreaker a secret. We can't discuss our findings with anyone but other members of the hacking/phreaking community for fear of being punished. We are punished for wanting to learn. Why is the government spending huge amounts of time and money to arrest hackers when there are other much more dangerous people out there. It is the murderers, rapists, terrorists, kidnappers, and burglers who should be punished for what they have done, not hackers. We do NOT pose a threat to anyone. We are NOT out to hurt people or there computers. I admit that there are some people out there who call themselves hackers and who deliberately damage computers. But these people are criminals, NOT hackers. I don't care what the government says, we are NOT criminals. We are NOT trying to alter or damage any system. This is widely misunderstood. Maybe one day people will believe us when we say that all we want is to learn.

There are only two ways to get rid of hackers and phreakers. One is to get rid of computers and telephones, in which case we would find other means of getting what we want.(Like that is really going to happen.) The other way is to give us what we want, which is free access to ALL information. Until one of those two things happen, we are not going anywhere.

B. Why hack?

As said above, we hack to gain knowledge about systems and the way they work. We do NOT want to damage systems in any way. If you do damage a system, you WILL get caught. But, if you don't damage anything, it is very unlikely that you will be noticed, let alone be tracked down and arrested, which costs a considerable amount of time and money.

Beginners should read all the files that they can get their hands on about anything even remotely related to hacking and phreaking, BEFORE they start hacking. I know it sounds stupid and boring but it will definetly pay off in the future. The more you read about hacking and phreaking, the more unlikely it is that you will get caught. Some of the most useless pieces of information that you read could turn out to be the most helpful. That is why you need to read everything possible.

C. Hacking rules

1. Never damage any system. This will only get you into trouble.

2. Never alter any of the systems files, except for those needed to insure that you are not detected, and those to insure that you have access into that computer in the future.

3. Do not share any information about your hacking projects with anyone but those you'd trust with your life.

4. When posting on BBS's (Bulletin Board Systems) be as vague as possible when describing your current hacking projects. BBS's CAN be monitered by law enforcement.

5. Never use anyone's real name or real phone number when posting on a BBS.

6. Never leave your handle on any systems that you hack in to.

7. DO NOT hack government computers.

8. Never speak about hacking projects over your home telephone line.

9. Be paranoid. Keep all of your hacking materials in a safe place.

10. To become a real hacker, you have to hack. You can't just sit around reading text files and hanging out on BBS's. This is not what hacking is all about.

D. Getting started

The very first thing you need to do is get a copy of PKZIP or some other file unzipping utility. Nearly everything that you download from the Internet or from a BBS will be zipped. A zipped file is a file that has been compressed. Zipped files end with the extension ".zip".

Then you need to get yourself a good prefix scanner.(also known as a War Dialer) This is a program that automatically dials phone numbers beginning with the three numbers (prefix) that you specify. It checks to see if the number dialed has a carrier.(series of beeps that tells you that you have dialed a computer) Try and find a large business area prefix to scan. It is these businesses that have interesting computers. There are many good scanners out there, but I would recommend Autoscan or A-Dial. These are very easy to use and get the job done quickly and efficiently.

E. Where and how to start hacking

After you get yourself a good scanner, scan some prefixes and find some cool dialups, then do the following: From your terminal, dial the number you found. Then you should hear a series of beeps (carrier) which tells you that you are connecting to a remote computer. It should then say something like "CONNECT 9600" and then identify the system that you are on. If nothing happens after it says "CONNECT 9600" try hitting enter a few times. If you get a bunch of garbage adjust your parity, data bits, stop bits, baud rate, etc., until it becomes clear.

That is one way of connecting to a remote computer. Another way is through Telenet or some other large network.

Telenet is a very large network that has many other networks and remote computers connected to it.

Ok, here is how you would connect to a remote computer through Telenet:

First, you get your local dialup(phone number) from the list that I have provided in Section G. Then you dial the number from your terminal and connect.(If you get a bunch of garbage try changing your parity to odd and your data bits to 7, this should clear it up.) If it just sits there hit enter and wait a few seconds, then hit enter again. Then it will say "TERMINAL=" and you type in your terminal emulation. If you don't know what it is just hit enter. Then it will give you a prompt that looks like "@". From there you type "c" and then the NUA (Network User Address) that you want to connect to. After you connect to the NUA, the first thing you need to do is find out what type of system you are on.(i.e. UNIX, VAX/VMS, PRIME, etc.)

There are other things that you can do on Telenet besides connecting to an NUA. Some of these commands and functions are listed in the next section.

You can only connect to computers which accept reverse charging. The only way you can connect to computers that don't accept reverse charging is if you have a Telenet account. You can try hacking these. To do this, at the "@" prompt type "access". It will then ask you for your Telenet ID and password.

Telenet is probably the safest place to start hacking because of the large numbers of calls that they get. Make sure you call during business hours (late morning or early afternoon) so there are many other people on-line.

F. Telenet commands

Here is a list of some Telenet commands and their functions. This is only a partial list. Beginners probably won't use these commands, but I put them here for reference anyway.

COMMAND                                 FUNCTION

c                                       Connect to a host
stat                                    Shows network port
full                                    Network echo
half                                    Terminal echo
telemail                                Mail.(need ID and password)

cont                                    Continue
d                                       Disconnect
hangup                                  Hangs up

I. Telenet NUA's
Here is a list of a few Telenet NUA's and what type of system they are. But first, this is how an NUA is put together:

                    031106170023700
                    \   /\ /  \ /
                      |   |    |
                   DNIC Area  NUA
                        Code
The DNIC says which network connected to Telenet you are using. The area code is the area code for the area that the NUA is in. And the NUA is the address of the computer on Telenet. Please note that an NUA does NOT have to be in your area code for you to connect to it.
There are two ways of finding useful NUA's. The first way is to get or write an NUA scanning program. The second way is to get a copy of the Legion Of Doom's Telenet Directory.( Volume 4 of the LOD Technical Journals)

Now, here is the list. Remember that these are only a few NUA's. These are NOT all of the Telenet NUA's. All of these NUA's DO accept reverse charging. Also, please note that all of these may not be working by the time you read this and that network congestion frequently makes an NUA inaccessible for a short period of time.

J. Basic UNIX hacking
UNIX is probably the most commonly used operating system on Telenet, and is the easiest to hack since it doesn't record bad login attempts. You know you've found a UNIX system when it gives you a "Login" prompt, and then a "Password" prompt. To get in you should first try the default logins.(Listed below.) If these don't work try some of the passwords listed in Section M. If these don't work try to find backdoors. These are passwords that may have been put in to allow the programmer (or someone else who could be in a position to make a backdoor) to get access into the system. These are usually not known about by anyone but the individual who made it. Try doing some research on the programmer and other people who helped to make the system. And, if these don't work, just try guessing them. The Login (usually the account holders name) has 1-8 characters and the Password is 6-8 characters. Both can be either letters or numbers, or a combination of the two.

Once you get in, you should get a "$" prompt, or some other special character like it. You should only use lower case letters when hacking UNIX, this seems to be standard format. If you type "man [command]" at the prompt, it should list all of the commands for that system. Anyway, here are the default Logins and Passwords:

Login:                          Password:

root                            root
root                            system
sys                             sys
sys                             system
daemon                          daemon
uucp                            uucp
tty                             tty
test                            test
unix                            unix

bin                             bin
adm                             adm

sysman                          sysman

nuucp                           nuucp
rje                             rje
games                           games
games                           player
sysop                           sysop
root                            sysop
demo                            demo
Once you are in, the first thing that you need to do is save the password file to your hard drive or to a disk. The password file contains the Logins and Passwords. The passwords are encoded. To get the UNIX password file, depending on what type of UNIX you are in, you can type one of the following things:
/etc/passwd
or
cat /etc/passwd

The first one is the standard command, but there are other commands as well, like the second one. Once you get the password file, it should look like this:

john:234abc56:9999:13:John Johnson:/home/dir/john:/bin/john

Broken down, this is what the above password file states:

Username: john
Encrypted Password: 234abc56
User Number: 9999
Group Number: 13
Other Information: John Johnson
Home Directory: /home/dir/john
Shell: /bin/john

If the password file does not show up under one of the above two commands, then it is probably shadowed.

The following definition of password shadowing was taken from the alt.2600 hack faq:

"Password shadowing is a security system where the encrypted password field is replaced with a special token and the encrypted password is stored in a seperate file which is not readable by normal system users."

If the password file is shadowed, you can find it in one of the following places, depending on the type of UNIX you are using:

UNIX System Type:               Path:                                           Token:

AIX 3                           /etc/security/passwd                            !
or                              /tcb/auth/files/(first letter of                       
                                username)/(username)                            #

A/UX 3.Os                       /tcb/files/auth/                                *

BSD4.3-Reno                     /etc/master.passwd                              *

Convex0S 11                     /etc/shadow                                     *

DG/UX                           /etc/tcb/aa/user                                *

EP/IX                           /etc/shadow                                     x

HP-UX                           /.secure/etc/passwd                             *

                                username)/(username)

SunOS 5.0                       /etc/shadow                                     #

System V 4.0                    /etc/shadow                                     x
       
System V 4.2                    /etc/security/database                          *

Ultrix 4                        /etc/auth[.dir|.pag]                            *

UNICOS                          /etc/udb                                        *
Some passwords can only be used for a certain amount of time without having to be changed, this is called password aging. In the password file example below, the "C.a4" is the password aging data:
bob:123456,C.a4:6348:45:Bob Wilson:/home/dir/bob:/bin/bob

The characters in the password aging data stand for the following:

1. Maximum number of weeks a password can be used without changing.
2. Minimum number of weeks a password must be used before being changed.
3&4. Last time password was changed, in number of weeks since 1970.

The password aging data can be decoded using the chart below:

Character:                      Number:

Now, explore the system freely, be careful, and have fun!
K. Basic VAX/VMS hacking

The VAX system runs the VMS (Virtual Memory System) operating system. You know that you have a VAX system when you get a "username" prompt. Type in capital letters, this seems to be standard on VAX's. Type "HELP" and it gives you all of the help that you could possibly want. Here are the default usernames and passwords for VAX's:

Username:                       Password:

SYSTEM                          OPERATOR
SYSTEM                          MANAGER
SYSTEM                          SYSTEM
SYSTEM                          SYSLIB
OPERATOR                        OPERATOR
SYSTEST                         UETP
SYSTEST                         SYSTEST
SYSTEST                         TEST
SYSMAINT                        SYSMAINT
SYSMAINT                        SERVICE
SYSMAINT                        DIGITAL
FIELD                           FIELD
FIELD                           SERVICE
GUEST                           GUEST
GUEST                           unpassworded
DEMO                            DEMO
DEMO                            unpassworded
TEST                            TEST
DECNET                          DECNET
Here are some of the VAX/VMS commands:
Command:                        Function:

HELP (H)                        Gives help and list of commands.
TYPE (T)                        View contents of a file.
RENAME (REN)                    Change name of a file.
PURGE (PU)                      Deletes old versions of a file.
PRINT (PR)                      Prints a file.
DIRECTORY (DIR)                 Shows list of files.
DIFFERENCES     (DIF)           Shows differences between files.
CREATE (CR)                     Creates a file.
DELETE (DEL)                    Deletes a file.
COPY (COP)                      Copy a file to another.
CONTINUE (C)                    Continues session.
The password file on VAX's are available when you type in the command:
SYS$SYSTEM:SYSUAF.DAT

The password file on most VAX's are usually not available to normal system users, but try it anyway. If the default logins don't work, use the same means of finding one as stated in Section J.

Be VERY careful when hacking VAX's becuase they record every bad login attempt. They are sometimes considered one of the most secure systems. Because of this, I advise not to try hacking these until you are more advanced.

But, when you are an advanced hacker, or if you are already an advanced hacker, I advise that you try a few passwords at a time and then wait and try a few more the next day and so on, because when the real user logs on it displays all of the bad login attempts.

L. Basic PRIME hacking

PRIME computer systems greet you with "Primecon 18.23.05", or something like it, when you connect. You should type in capital letters on this system, too. Once you connect, it will usually just sit there. If this happens, type "LOGIN ". It should then ask you for your username and password. The default usernames and passwords are listed below:

Username:               Password:

PRIME                   PRIME
PRIME                   PRIMOS
PRIMOS                  PRIMOS
PRIMOS                  PRIME
PRIMOS_CS               PRIME
PRIMOS_CS               PRIMOS
PRIMENET                PRIMENET
SYSTEM                  SYSTEM
SYSTEM                  PRIME
SYSTEM                  PRIMOS
NETLINK                 NETLINK
TEST                    TEST
GUEST                   GUEST
GUEST1                  GUEST
When you are inside the system, type "NETLINK" and it ahould give you alot of help. This system uses NUA's, too. I might print these in the next volume.
