Examining Ethical Hacking: A Case Study for Information Security Curriculum
S Mamatha, Dr M N Nachappa · International Journal of Advanced Research in Science Communication and Technology · 2024
Denial of Service (DoS) assaults are a crucial subject in security courses, particularly those that emphasize intrusion detection and ethical hacking methods. This work offers a case study that describes how three typical DoS attacks were implemented as part of extensive offensive hands-on lab exercises. The goal of the exercises is to provide students with the necessary skills to carry out these assaults in a lab setting on a remote network. The report also addresses the moral and legal ramifications of teaching ethical hacking and offers recommendations for improving the efficacy and integrity of information security curricula at educational institutions.
