Phone Tapping (Wire taps) are generally used by law enforcement agencies, although they can be purchased by individuals. They provide the alternative advantage to cameras in that they provide audio—and often transmit audio live—under circumstances when it is not prudent for an actual person to be listening. Wire taps are generally very small and can be hidden almost anywhere—some are even designed to fit within phones to record telephone conversations.

What is Overclocking?
Overclocking is the process of running a computer component at a higher clock rate (more clock cycles per second) than it was designed for or was specified by the manufacturer.

What’s the point of Overclocking?
The main goal of overclocking is to raise the GHz of one’s CPU through raising the clock rate of a CPU.

Are there any hazards to Overclocking?
Yes, there are many. When overclocking, you must understand what it is you are doing and not be adding too much power to the CPU to the point where it cannot contain it and you will fry your motherboard along with your RAM & CPU. There is also a fire hazard. If you overclock too much, you will fry your motherboard which will lead to smoke and a potential fire hazard.

In computer terminology, a honeypot is a trap set to detect, deflect, or in some manner counteract attempts at unauthorized use of information systems. Generally it consists of a computer, data, or a network site that appears to be part of a network but which is actually isolated, (un)protected, and monitored, and which seems to contain information or a resource that would be of value to attackers.

“The translation of data into a secret code”. Encryption is the most effective way to achieve data security. To read an encrypted file, you must have access to a secret key or password that enables you to decrypt it. Unencrypted data is called plain text encrypted data is referred to as cipher text.

Denial-of-service attacks under a number of guises have been around for decades. Distributed DoS attacks are much newer, first being seen in late June and early July of 1999. The first well-documented DDoS attack appears to have occurred in August 1999, when a DDoS tool called Trinoo (described below) was deployed in at least 227 systems, of which at least 114 were on Internet2, to flood a single University of Minnesota computer; this system was knocked off the air for more than two days.

Introduction

Wi-Fi is a trademark of the Wi-Fi Alliance. It is not a technical term. However, the Alliance has generally enforced its use to describe only a narrow range of connectivity technologies including wireless local area network (WLAN) based on the IEEE 802.11 standards, device to device connectivity, and a range of technologies that support PAN, LAN and even WAN connections.

A rootkit is software that enables continued privileged access to a computer, while actively hiding its presence from administrators by subverting standard operating system functionality or other applications. The term rootkit is a concatenation of the “root” user account in Unix operating systems and the word “kit”, which refers to the software components that implement the tool. The term has negative connotations through its association with malware.

According to me this is a full proof & the best method for reconnaissance.
Definition
“The art and science of getting people to comply to your wishes” (Bernz 2), “an outside hacker’s use of psychological tricks on legitimate users of a computer system, in order to obtain information he needs to gain access to the system” (Palumbo), or “getting needed information (for example, a password) from a person rather than breaking into a system” (Berg). In reality, social engineering can be any and all of these things, depending upon where you sit. The one thing that everyone seems to agree upon is that social engineering is generally a hacker’s clever manipulation of the natural human tendency to trust. The hacker’s goal is to obtain information that will allow him/her to gain unauthorized access to a valued system and the information that resides on that system.
