Few weeks ago the media did publish that the US Air Force has classified 6 tools as cyber weapons, no doubt a hot topic. For this post I will do the same and put a list of 10 tools that could be Cyber weapons, my list.
My selection is based in the following criteria: its usefulness, features and open source or free at least.
Logically there are more tools that I like or that I use, but I think that this list is a great collection to carry out attacks in networks and systems, reverse engineering, traffic analysis, social engineering, vulnerability discovery and exploits development, for sure tools that should be in the toolkit of all pentester 🙂
- Metasploit: the pentesting tool per excellence.
- SET: wide features to perform social engineering attacks.
- Dsploit: nothing like carry a pentesting toolkit on your mobile for Android.
- Nmap: popular network scanner and more.
- WireShark: analyzes network traffic, simple and powerful.
- Ettercap: all kinds of network attacks.
- Immunity Debugger: a little bit of reverse engineering combined with Python scripting.
- Mona: powerful script for the previous tool or Wingdb to develop exploits.
- Peach: Complete framework to find vulnerabilities via fuzzing.
- Androguard: Reverse engineering Android Apps.
Which is your list of 10 cyber weapons?
