PTHelper: An open source tool to support the Penetration Testing process

Understand

Offensive security is one of the state of the art measures to protect enterprises and organizations.

• Penetration testing, broadly called pentesting, is a branch of offensive security designed to find, rate and exploit these vulnerabilities, in order to assess the security posture of an organization.
• This process is often time-consuming and the quantity of information that pentesters need to manage might also be difficult to handle.
• This project takes a practical approach to solve the automation of pentesting and proposes a usable tool, called PTHelper.
