Before we get going with the actual penetration testing, we want to install a free program called “HTTrack” via the Backtrack 5 console. To do this, open Backtrack 5 and enter “sudo apt=get install httrack” and get ready for the next step. Once that’s done, go ahead and type in “httrack” into the console to pull it up. Now, in case you’re wondering, this program will allow us to index all of the pages on a given site before we start the actual penetration testing process. This means that you won’t have to be digging around through some site live and wasting precious time. You also don’t assume the risk of getting kicked off of the server before you get what you need. If that were to happen, you’d need to install this tool anyways so it’s best to play it safe and use it from the beginning.
Next, you will give your path a name (you can leave it blank if you want) and you will enter a website to copy. Once you do that and hit enter, you’ll be given a list of options. To copy the entire website, you’ll simply hit “1” on your keyboard. Give it a few minutes and you’ll have duplicates of the entire site’s contents downloaded.
There are also tools available for download that will let you repeat this process but for sub-domains and emails. We aren’t going to cover that here in this lesson but that’s because it is more of a convenience and isn’t completely necessary. With that being said, it’s about time we move on to Step 2!
