Penetration testing is defined as the procedure of imposing as an attacker to find out the vulnerabilities in a system that can be used to gain access to system for malicious use. This paper provides an overview of penetration testing and list out the criteria used to select the best tools for the given purpose. It also provides a brief description of the selected tools and furthermore we compare those tools. The results of the comparison are shown in terms of graphs and tables.

Literature is filled with silence, which, being polysemic, is a medium much harder to decipher than a word, whose semantic bearing capacity is more limited. To explore silence is to try to gain access to something most intimate, something that does not want to – or cannot – appear in verbal form. In Krysinska’s selected texts one observes silence on two levels, the narrative level and the story level. In most cases, we are dealing with a communicative silence. On the story level, characters use silence as an efficient way of achieving their goals or they are forced into silence by external factors. In many cases silence is imposed on the characters, it is not their choice, for in the given situation they could not utter even a single word. On the narrative level it is the narrator who condemns characters to the role of quasi-mutes, for any statements from characters are relatively rare. The narrator does not allow them to speak freely, he uses reported speech. He exercises active control over the reader, skilfully directing their reception and forcing them to accept his point of view.

The purpose of the existing examination has changed to gain access to the "Ethiopian Higher Education Students' Status of Physical Education". The current study was conducted on 800 students (500 males and 300 females) between the ages of 20 and 26 years. The subjects were Ethiopian Higher Education Students, Addis Ababa, and Dire Dawa. Topics were Ethiopian Higher Education Students, Addis Ababa, and Dire Dawa. The responses collected from the given studies were converted into raw data with the help of a frequency distribution method. The data were then sorted as a result of a percentage study method.

In Computer Security, the term vulnerability refers as a flaw in the system which creates a hole, giving an attacker a chance of taking control over the system. Any Software, Web application or anything related to computer product is vulnerable to attack in different ways like code stealing, sniffing of packets, hijacking the network, making the system compromised etc. In order to avoid such attacks a constant check has to be done and the check has to be done through various Pen testing tools. Penetration tools are one which is used to perform security check on an application to find the presence of exploitable vulnerabilities. In this paper, we look over the penetration tools like CODEPULSE (the code stealer), ETTERCAP (the Sniffer and Hijacker) and made a systematic review of various websites which are vulnerable to SQL Injection and Cross-site Scripting.

This second part covers the implementation, testing, critical evaluation, conclusion and further study. It concentrates on the actual implementation details of hardening of network devices by referring to the hardware and software components, device operating system’s features, management controls, access-list restrictions, operational configurations and critically making sure that the data and credentials are not stored or transferred in ‘plaintext’ over the network by detailed testing and evaluation. It investigates the commands used to enable cryptography and network protocols based on encryption, in order to meet the need for essential security requirements. Substantial work is devoted to the command line details and testing of a router based on Cryptography and Security Protocols in the border router. A step-by-step hardening approach is detailed using the commands used to secure the proposed network framework’s border router. Encrypted services coupled with best practice configurations are explained and tested in an emulated environment. The use of protocol analysers, CISCO Configuration Professional’s Audit and penetration testing tools corroborated the success of the project.
