Pentesting with Perl
Joshua Abraham
USA 2011 One-day Training Session //Aug 2
Overview:
The object of the course is to cover many of the tasks that need to be performed during a penetration assessment as well as to improve existing tools and build new tools as needed.
This course will help to streamline much of the tedious aspects of pentesting. We will use Perl to get the job done quickly and effectively. The goal of the course is to help everyone to automate many of the tasks they are performing manually, so that they can focus on more complex issues. The ability to automate tasks is critical to being a successful penetration tester. We need to be spending time on the most complex issues that cannot be tested through the use of automated tools!
