        💠Ettercap supports active and passive dissection many protocols.
   
        💠 Ettercap uses ARP poisioning to sniff on a switched LAN between two hosts.

        💠Remote traffic through GRE tunnel the sniffing of remote traffic through GRE tunnel from a remote CISCO router, and perform a man in the middle attack.

        💠 GRE- Generic Routing Encapsulation provides a path for transporting packets  through  an otherwise public path way to encapsulate packets.

        💠  Hijacking of DNS requests.

        💠Character can be injected into a server   to a client while maintaining a live connection.

6.HASHCAT:

         💠Hashcat is a password recovery tool.

         💠Hashcat in various operating systems are linux, OS X, and windows.

         💠   Hashcat supporting hashing algorithms are LM hashes, MD4, MD5, SHA family and unix crypt formats and algorithms used in MYSQL and CISCO pic.

         💠 Hashcat has different attacks to find passwords are:
            ❇Brute force attack.
            ❇ Combinator  attack
            ❇ Dictionary attack
            ❇  Fingerprint attack
            ❇  Permutation attack
            ❇Mask attack
            ❇  Hybrid attack
            ❇Prince attack
            ❇ Table-lookup attack
            ❇ Toggle- case attack

7.AIRCRACK-NG

      
       💠Aircrack crackes vulnerable wirless connections.
   
       💠Aircrack is a network software suite consisting of a detector packet sniffer, WEP and WPA /WPA2 -psk cracker and analysis tool for wirelesa LAN's

     💠 The program runs under linux, free BSD and windows.

     💠  Aircrack Ng cracks WEP keys using the Fluhrer, Mantin and Shamir attack(FMS) attack, PTW attack and dictionary attack.

     💠 FMS- it is in cryptography the Fluhrer, Mantin and Shamir attack is a stream cipher attack on the widely used RC4 stream cipher.

    💠PTW- The attack is a key ranking strategy it trying all possible combinations of the key.
    
    💠 Aircrack supports all types of OS and  platforms.

8.JOHN THE RIPPER:

    
      💠 John the ripper is a free password cracking tool.

     💠  It is developed by the unix operating systems. It run on filter differ platforms.

     💠John can use for the dictionary attack.

     💠 John also offer bruteforce attack.

    💠 John autodetects password hash types and includes a cutomizable cracker.

     💠It is mainly used for testing encrypted  passwords.

9.NESSUS:

    💠  Nessus is the ethical hacking tool used for vulnerability evaluations and penetration testing operations.

    💠Nessus is a remote security scanning tool which scans a computer and discovering vulnerabilities.

   💠  Nessus can also call hydra to launch a dictionary attack.

   💠 It uses of find DNS (denial of service) vulnerabilities.
