CONCLUSION
NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY

Windows XP is one of the most widely used Operating system in

the world so it is important to learn the security and loopholes.
Here we learned the different tool and techniques used for
hacking.This knowledge is very much helpful for administrator
who maintain the system in an organization. Using registry we
can hack the Windows XP locally. The access to explorer.exe is
one of the greatest loophole in windows through which we can
exploit Windows XP.Apart from this we learned about hacking
related to internet security. At last we learn about prevention ,one
should take to overcome this flaws.
