Abstract

Telnet is a protocol that facilitates user to connect to remote computers over a TCP/IP network. The Telnet program runs on client's computer and connects client's computer to a server on the network. A valid Username and Password enables client to login and start a telnet session. The login mechanism is believed to provide the required security by maintaining confidentiality of the login data. However, this approach still exhibits vulnerabilities. This paper demonstrates ethically hacking telnet to obtain login details of user using the Wireshark tool. Potential threats that are likely occur on a computer or network are identified through Ethical Hacking. Thus, helping to secure the system from potential attacks by tools like Promiscdetect, sniffdet, etc which checks if any network adapter(s) is running in promiscuous mode.
