“Nessus’ can only compare scans to a database of known vulnerability signatures,” says Saez. The Nessus Vulnerability Scanner is a popular, signature-based tool for locating vulnerabilities. “Metasploit is the most popular pen test tool,” says Saez. Bitbucket, like GitHub is an online repository for coding projects. People release these custom modules on GitHub and Bitbucket. Metasploit is a framework with a large programmer fan base that adds custom modules, test tools that test for weaknesses in operating systems and applications. If you don’t find your holes and seal them, they will exploit them. These tools are key to securing your enterprise because these are the same kinds of tools that attackers use. The pen test tools for this discussion are Metasploit, the Nessus Vulnerability Scanner, Nmap, Burp Suite, OWASP ZAP, SQLmap, Kali Linux, and Jawfish (Evan Saez is a developer on the Jawfish project).
