Hide your Foot Prints

Simply running traffic on any network is trouble if your working your scans on a enterprise level i suggest you to change your mac address and ip and even hostname .And to use the internet or browse any site that can trace back to you. You could have just about done nothin but certain actions on the internet are considered more hostile from a  security personnel's view.


  • Change your IP address and Hostname
  • Change your MAC address
  • Anonymize 



1.Changing ip and hostname guess you people know atleast that much :P .

2.Changing the mac address

Go to Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections

  • select adapter settings
  • go to properties of the adapter where the mac is to be altered


  • click on configure button below the connect using textbox.
  • in the new frame being opened go to the advanced tab
  • in the property menu select 'Network Address'
  • in the value text box just type about anything and that will become your current mac address
  • you'll have to restart the system or the just the adapter is enough for the change




Note: you cannot change the mac address of a WiFi adapter but you can bridge it to a Ethernet port and change its mac address.


3.Anonymize 

 It is necessary that no one traces back to us using anonymizers like TOR keep us safe from being detected. They use onion routing Technology so by the time your in and out of a network they would still be trying to find the region where your getting access from. TOR and other such anonymizers make the net slow due to the levels of encryption each packet uses . but for our purpose that speed is all that is required for transmitting plain text over the network.
other anonymizers are ultrasurf. But still they don't work as good as TOR
