This article highlights the importance of Windows Command Prompt (CMD) in managing, troubleshooting, and gathering information for

ethical hackers and security researchers. With over 280 available commands, CMD provides a powerful toolset for operating system tasks from a command-line interface. To get started with CMD, open it as an
administrator by pressing Windows + S, typing "CMD," right-clicking, and selecting "Open as administrator." Here are the top 10 Windows CMD commands used by security researchers and hackers: 1. **Ping**: Verifies LAN connectivity using ICMP Request messages. 2. **Nslookup**: Queries DNS servers for IP addresses. 3. **Tracert**: Displays
the route path between your computer and a website. 4. **Arp**: Displays or changes entries in the ARP cache. 5. **Route print**: Manipulates network routing tables. 6. **Ipconfig/all**: Displays detailed IP information for each network adapter. 7. **Netstat -an**: Displays all open network connections and listening ports. 8. **Path**: Displays or sets
a specific path available to executable files. 9. **System File Checker**: Scans and repairs Windows system files. Some additional CMD commands include: * **Cls**: Clears the Command Prompt screen. * **Qrencode -d / [address]**: Creates a QR code for a specific website. * **Exit**: Closes the CMD window. By mastering these basic CMD
commands, ethical hackers can efficiently manage and troubleshoot their systems. Given article text here Wi-Fi password recovery using Windows built-in command prompt commands, including netsh wlan show profile SSID key=clear to reset forgotten Wi-Fi network credentials, and other useful cmd commands for network troubleshooting and
system diagnostics. Security breaches are often indicative of a larger issue, rather than just one singular problem. The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is essential for viewing and modifying the ARP cache, which can help identify unauthorized devices connected to the network. This could potentially lead to further attacks, making it crucial in
network sniffing. cmd commands for network and system analysis are crucial for cybersecurity professionals. telnet is used for testing network connectivity and accessing services. Ping: Use "ping x.x.x.x" to test the time it takes for your computer to send a packet to an IP address. You can also ping websites like Google by using their URL instead of
an IP address. Nslookup: This command is useful for finding the IP address of a website or mail server. For example, you can use "nslookup www.google.com" to find Google's IP address. Additionally, you can use "set type=mx" and then enter a domain name like "yahoo.com" to find the IP address of that domain's mail servers. Tracert: This command
shows the route packets take when traveling to their destination. Use "tracert x.x.x.x" or "tracert www.google.com" to see the path your data takes. Arp: The arp -a command displays information about the ARP table on your computer, which can help you detect ARP poisoning attacks in your local area network (LAN). Route: Use the route print
command to view the routing table, gateway, interface, and metric for all networks connected to your computer. Ipconfig: This command shows various settings like IP address, default gateway, DNS servers, and more. You can use "ipconfig /all" to get detailed information about all network interfaces. Netstat: The netstat command displays
connection statistics. You can use options like "-a", "-n", or "-an" to see different types of information, such as listening ports and open connections. Additional commands include: * Net view x.x.x.x (or computername) to list shared folders on a target computer. * Net use \ipaddressipc$ "" /user:administrator to connect to the target computer as an
administrator. * Net use K: \computernameC$ to create a virtual drive that allows you to browse the C drive of a target computer. Finally, don't forget about the "help" command. Use "whatevercommand /?" or "whatevercommand /help" to learn more about how to use any particular command. Obtain comprehensive training in V9 ceh (EC-Council
Certified Ethical Hacker) in Pune, India. Alternatively, pursue an Ethical Hacking course in the same region to develop your skills in ethical hacking and penetration testing.
