Re: DoS test on specific TCP Port

[Shawn Merdinger <shawnmer () gmail com>]

Hi Shankar,

You might consider looking into the following tools.

NAPTHA (TCP resource exhaustion)
ISIC (specifically TCPsic)

Also, this document by Cisco CIAG and STAT folks, even at 6 years old,
is most helpful in getting started breaking stuff.

"A Structured and Practical Methodology For Security Evaluation of a
IP Based Stack"

Cheers,

Prove to peers and potential employers without a doubt that you can actually do a proper penetration test. IACRB CPT 
and CEPT certs require a full practical examination in order to become certified.
