Abstract

Using a tool called Aircrack, along with another called Cain and Able, I aim to demonstrate the importance of ethical hacking in professional environments. Many times, organizations do maintain proper document security which, along with staff turnover, can introduce critical, password protected documents to security vulnerabilities; some of which could cripple an organization. My goal is to demonstrate the importance of vulnerability assessment as well as the ethical hacking processes involved.
