Harden your LinkedIn Settings : A Necessity Now

Most of us are part of various Social Engineering Sites and keep updating ourselves via status updates, pictures and tweeting small life updates. Related Privacy and Security issues in respect of these social engineering sites available is already a serious concern among users. Additionally for these all social engineering sites/applications whether accessible on a desktop or a mobile, we all are not so serious responding and interacting but that’s the difference when we see viz-a-viz LinkedIn. When it is LinkedIn…we are mostly serious…no jokes, no clips, no tagging, no personal comments, no WOWs…it’s all professional. And when most of us take it seriously, we also feed serious inputs on it. But do we take necessary precautions too?...I have mostly seen a negated curve amongst my friend circle….hardly anyone has spared time to configure LinkedIn Privacy and Security settings. In this post I bring you out basic and necessary configuration steps involved to harden your LinkedIn interface to the world.

POWERFUL THAN ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT : SYSTEM LOGIN

1.  So here is something unheard to those who thought that ADMINISTRATOR was the king of the respective PC account.So for those who think so...ever thought why r u unable to fiddle with system files when u r the owner... that's because there is a SYSTEM account over and above the administrator who can delete the administrator account!!!!yes u read it right....so how do u get to the system account.I am giving it a step by step attempt here with screen shots!!

2.  Firstly...get to your desktop and see ur user name...mine is windowsxp ie a user account with admin priveleges as shown below :

3.    Secondly,get to the command prompt and create a schedule to run cmd.exe as follows :

at 14:51 /interactive “cmd.exe”

*** The time mentioned here can be a minute or two ahead of whats the time u doing this action.

 4.   You can check schedule by typing “at“ and hitting enter after the above step.

5.    Now Wait for the time you set for the schedule and u see that cmd.exe would be launched at the specified time and a subsequent command prompt windows will open automatically.

6.    Now go to ur desktop without closing any window and reach the task manager and kill the explorer.exe file under the process tab.

7.    Close the first cmd window and not the second one.

8.    Reach the root directory by pressing cd\

9.    Type start explorer...thats it...now u logged in as the System.....as shown:

 10.   Point to note :

- This is only for educational and info pupose.
- Never attempt it on a live system.
- Always do it on a virtualbox or Virtual machine or virtual PC.
