my school project

I'm currently enrolled at UAT for Computer Forensics, and I'm in the final week of my second course, Security Essentials. Our final project for the week was to write a paper on some topic dealing with security. I decided to do a brief overview of some of the tools hackers use to attack and maintain control of a system. When I'm done with the paper, I might just post it here, but for now, go check out www.remote-exploit.org. This site is home to the BackTrack Linux distro and it's filled with great security tools. For a list of tools, go here-> https://wiki.remote-exploit.org/backtrack/wiki/Category. I've been using it at home a bit, just playing around and what not, and it's interesting what all you can do with this nice bootable DVD. The .ISO can be found on their site and I believe that they are up to BackTrack4 now. I use BT3 since at the time it was the latest stable image. Enjoy!
