Re: [pakgrid] Penetration Testing Research

 

Respected All

Thanks for your valuable suggestion.

I was inspired by this topic while attending a short course on "Computer Forensics" organized by NCRD (http://www.ncrd.gov.pk/) early in the July. Different topics were introduced by Mehr Noor and his colleagues, who are certified ethical hackers and have their MS Degree from NUST. They all are running a info security firm (missed their details some where) in Pakistan.

Very surprised to see Syeda Umema's comments. Penetration Testing (and its multiple fast growing areas) are a solid platform for research and since it is a manual intensive area in the commercial world, low cost countries (Eastern Europe, China, India) have picked up major revenue stream from USA and Europe. 
 
Pakistanis should pursure aggressive research in this area.
 
One area of research I would like Pakistanis to pursue is prevention against application level (i.e. "slow") distributed denial of service attacks.

Mr. Abid Shahzad,

In my opinion it is wrong way for the selection of research topic that you try to pick some unique never heard research term in order to start your research. 

Majority of the research findings are useless in my believe.. because they hardly get implemented in real life or verified as field cases.

I think we Pakistanis should also try to focus over case studies based research methodology for every already discussed trendy topic along with new field practices. I think our field professionals should try to follow recommended principals given in Research articles and observe their validation.

insahAllah this behavior should bring improvement in our economy.

As far as penetration testing is concerned it is very important in Information Security field. 

So try to go through research papers discussing different techniques for penetration testing then try to come up with some new method or implement same given method or combination of different methods and get their reading then verify researcher's claim using proper verification methods or make commentary on them.

please use Google scholar for searching your related articles: 


read related information and then decide where you would like to go..
