What is Visual Hacking?

Visual hacking is an in-person form of hacking that takes advantage of poor security on the part of end users.

When it comes to securing a work computer and physical workspace, few employees take good care not to leave information up on their screens or around their desks.

Taking a walk through a large company will often reveal unattended computers still logged into networks, passwords taped to monitors, and sensitive corporate data left in plain sight on desks.

A recent test by the Ponemon Institute on 43 volunteer offices found that they were successful almost nine times out of ten in gaining access to sensitive corporate data simply by walking through office spaces.

This method of test can be applied virtually to every level of software testing: unit, integration, system and acceptance. It typically comprises most if not all higher level testing, but can also embody unit testing. Specific knowledge of the application's code/internal structure and programming knowledge in general is not required. The tester is aware of what the software is supposed to do but is not aware of how it does it. For instance, the tester is aware that a particular input returns a certain, invariable output but is not aware of how the software produces the output in the first place. In penetration testing, black-box testing refers to a methodology where an ethical hacker has no knowledge of the system being attacked. The goal of a black-box penetration test is to simulate an external hacking or cyber...
