In the constantly evolving landscape of cybersecurity, attackers have developed increasingly sophisticated techniques to bypass traditional security defenses. Among the most commonly targeted systems are Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), firewalls, and honeypots. These technologies play a critical role in identifying and preventing unauthorized access to networks, but when attackers successfully evade them, it can lead

1. Introduction to Evasion Techniques Evasion techniques are used to bypass security mechanisms like Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), firewalls, and honeypots to carry out attacks without detection. Key Objectives: 1. Avoid triggering alerts in IDS/IPS.2. Bypass firewall restrictions.3. Detect and evade honeypots to avoid traps. 2. Understanding Firewalls Firewalls act as barriers between trusted and
