 METASPLOIT PRO: PROFESSIONAL USE METASPLOIT FRAMEWORK – THE HACKER’S BREAD    Welcome to the second module of this workshop. In this module, you will be studying in depth the Metasploit Framework. This will also help you study the extraordinary benefits of this security tool, which also plays a key role in the exploit development lifecycle. Metasploit is the bread and butter for many information security professionals or pentesters.    There are a couple of good exploitation tools available in the market that are used by security professionals, however, Metasploit leads the industry due to a couple of reasons. There are other tools available, like Core Impact and Immunity Canvas, that lead the market along with Metasploit. The problem is that these tools are closed source and you would not be able to find even their crack or open version from any authentic source. Metasploit comes in a community edition, which doesn’t have any major differences in features in comparison to the pro ver

   NEXPOSE EXPOSED     You will learn more about NeXpose and Metasploit features, their usage and how you can best utilize these tools in order to perform penetration testing or a security assessment of your organization. Specifically, in this module, you will be able to learn more about NeXpose, the great vulnerability assessment and management software available on the market. In the field of security testing or penetration testing, a vulnerability assessment plays an important role in order to successfully penetrate into any network or system. To achieve this goal or perform the tasks, you need a cutting edge vulnerability assessment tool in order to assess the security of the target network or, in other words, perform a vulnerability assessment.  NeXpose isn’t the only tool available in the market to perform vulnerability assessment, however, it is one of the best among the industry leading tools in vulnerability assessment.   Basically, the vulnerability assessment leads to the ex

 Security in Software Development Lifecycle Security in software Development    Welcome to the last, but not the least, module of the software security-testing workshop. So far, we have discussed how you can perform code review, how to use code review tools and methodologies along with types of the code reviews. We have also learned that security should be built into the software development lifecycle. It’s worthwhile to present the concept of security during the development lifecycle.    In this module, we will be highlighting the security development lifecycle and we recommend that you should first complete the previous four modules.    What is security in the software development lifecycle?     Well, this is basically building security within the software development stages into the software itself. A security development lifecycle is a process that helps software developers to build software with security consideration.    What needs to be considered as security measures have been

 Demo Code Review Introduction    Welcome to the fourth module of software security testing workshop. In this workshop so far we have spoken enough about security testing in software code, methodologies and different types of software testing along with different tools introduction that are available easily in the industry market. However, so far we have not presented a practical demo for performing code review.    This will be a quick module to demonstrate how you can perform code reviews before you put your code on a live desk. We will be using Flawfinder as our tool to review code written in “C” language.    What is Flawfinder?    The Flawfinder is an open source security code review tool that is easily available to be downloaded from the Internet in one quick go.    Vendor’s mouth    “A simple program that examines C/C++ source code and reports possible security weaknesses (“flaws”) sorted by risk level. It’s very useful for quickly finding and removing at least some potential secu

  Source Code Review Tools & Techniques Introduction    Welcome to the third module of software security testing workshop. This module will specifically discuss tools available on the Internet to perform security source code review, or simply code review. These tools are not easy to use and understand as it is not a script kiddy job to simply run and detect the vulnerability and you need to have a solid background in programming to understand what the tool is highlighting as a flaw and what could be the outcome of a complete review.    This module is an easy go as it will speak about different tools and some snapshots. This module can be separately studied to gain more knowledge about source code review tools and their features. In this module, we will public speaking and reviews about these tools.     In today’s field of information security, the fastest growing areas in the software security industry is a source code analysis tool, also known as static analysis tools. These tools
