In a world
where everything which your computer can do, can be done on your smartphone,
hacking cannot be left behind.
The world is full of smartphones these days. Most people rely on
their smartphones and other portable devices to carry out their day to day
activities. It won’t be an exaggeration to say that smartphones have taken over
laptops in terms of productivity. Thus, it becomes extremely important to know
about the (ethical) hacking tools available
on your android phone. Who knows, you might need them
one day!
Hacking, nowadays, is not something which is the exclusive domain
of the “experts”. With the help of a few applications and basic knowledge of
the true capabilities of your android phone, you, too, could delve into the
world of hacking. So, let’s discuss some of the apps for your android phones
which will turn you into a hacker!
1.
ANDRORAT
AndroRat stands
for Android Remote Administration Tool. As the name suggests, it is a
remote administration tool which is used to control another device even if you
have no physical access to that device! Manipulating other devices can be
easily done using the app which is quite useful in case you’re away from your
device and need it to perform some task. It is also useful in inducing some
giggle and amazement amongst your friends and family members!
2.
DROIDSHEEP
The word “hacking” for many is hacking into your friend’s social
media account for giggles. Or it may be used for even something useful like
extracting some important information from someone’s social media accounts. DroidSheep does the
job for you. It hijacks the sessions of social media activities carried out on
your network. You need the knowledge of the basics of hijacking and by
installing the app on your android device you’re all set to ‘hack’ your
friend’s online social life!
3. KILL
WIFI
This open source ethical hacking app is one of the most popular
ones in this field. Similar to the net cut app in Windows, this app is capable
of cutting off anyone’s WiFi over your network. Kill Wifi is
extremely useful when you have an open WiFi not protected by a strong password.
You can cut off the WiFi of the intruder by just a few clicks on your device.
This app is easy to use owing to its lucid and interactive interface and
easy-to-use tools.
4.
SPOOFAPP
Won’t it be wonderful if you could place a call to your friend
phone, but instead of showing your phone number different number flashes on
your friend’s phone? SpoofApp is
exactly what this app does. Apart from changing your phone number, this app can
also change your voice and record your entire conversation! However, you will
need SpoofCards to use this app. Overall a nice app for bringing smiles on your
and your friend’s face.
5. WIFI
MAC CHANGER
One of the most useful ones, Wifi
Mac Changer app
changes the MAC address of your device you make your activities almost untraceable.
With your rooted android phone, you can change the MAC Address of your device
temporarily so that your online activities cannot be traced back to you. The
app provides you two methods of changing your MAC Address. One is the easier
way which reflects no change in your WiFi settings. The other method is a bit
tougher which allows you to enter apps which are password protected and this
will reflect the changed address in your WiFi settings.
CONCLUSION
These apps may not seem very productive at a first glance but with
prolonged use, you will certainly realize the potential that these apps
possess. Who knows someday you may need to spy upon your friend’s/significant
other’s social media account? Or you may need to kick off an intruder from your
network. Thus, gear up for the path untraveled and watch your world in an
entirely different light using these apps!
