RODRIGUEZ LLERENA, Alain Eduardo. Fundamental Tools for Ethical Hacking. RCIM [online]. 2020, vol.12, n.1, pp. 116-131.  Epub June 01, 2020. ISSN 1684-1859.

In Cuba, most computer security specialists have little knowledge about the essential tools of ethical hacking. To carry out the present investigation, national and international bibliographic searches were made. From the large number of tools available in specialized distributions for computer security (Parrot Security, Black Arch and Kali Linux), those that best fit the characteristics of Cuban networks were selected. Our research aimed to describe some of the selected tools for scanning and exploiting vulnerabilities, and fundamental concepts on the subject. We believe that this study will be very useful for Cuban specialists in computer security because it will serve them not only to learn about ethical hacking; but also, what are the tools that can be used taking into account the characteristics of our national networks.

Keywords : ethical hacking; vulnerabilities; scanning; computer security.
