nps is an intranet penetration proxy server that exposes internal network services to the public internet via secure TCP and UDP tunnels. It functions as a traffic forwarder and reverse proxy, enabling external access to local services, remote desktops, and internal APIs. The project is distinguished by a centralized web-based administration interface used to configure tunnels, manage user accounts, and monitor real-time bandwidth metrics. It supports domain-based request routing and provides a mechanism to secure public services using HTTPS encryption through digital certificates. The syste

Empire is a command and control framework and post-exploitation toolkit used for network penetration testing. It serves as a centralized platform for coordinating remote agent communication and automating the delivery of security testing payloads to target systems. The project provides a suite of modules for host reconnaissance, lateral movement, and credential harvesting across corporate environments. It functions as a remote administration tool to maintain persistence and execute commands on compromised hosts. The framework incorporates capabilities for agent orchestration and the executio

Pingtunnel is a network utility that implements ICMP tunneling by encapsulating TCP and UDP traffic within ICMP echo packets. It functions as an encrypted network tunnel and a SOCKS5 proxy server, allowing network traffic to be routed through a secure channel to bypass restrictive firewalls and network filters. The tool secures transmitted data using symmetric encryption to prevent interception of the tunneled payload. It uses a SOCKS5 proxy interface to accept standard network requests and redirect them into the ICMP tunnel. The system includes adaptive network polling to balance latency an

This project is a high-performance reverse proxy designed to expose local services to the internet. It provides a comprehensive suite of tools for managing network traffic, including support for TCP and UDP stream multiplexing, connection pooling, and load balancing across proxy instances. The system facilitates secure communication through TLS encryption, data compression, and multiple authentication methods such as OpenID Connect, shared tokens, and basic password protection. The software offers granular control over HTTP traffic, enabling users to route requests based on subdomains or URL

Impacket is a collection of Python classes designed for the construction, manipulation, and analysis of low-level network packets and services. It functions as a framework for building custom network tools, providing a programmatic interface to interact with communication protocols and service architectures. The library provides primitives for managing authentication, session state, and remote procedure calls within network environments. By offering a modular class hierarchy, it allows for the assembly of network packets and the implementation of specialized communication stacks. The project

Framework for Making Environmental Keyed Payloads (NO LONGER SUPPORTED)

Rubeus is a comprehensive Kerberos attack toolkit for Active Directory environments, written in C#. It provides a full suite of operations for manipulating Kerberos tickets, exploiting delegation configurations, and performing credential attacks against Windows domains. The toolkit enables ticket extraction from logon sessions and memory, with real-time monitoring via Event Tracing for Windows. It supports forging golden and silver tickets with arbitrary privileges, as well as the creation of forged delegation contexts. Delegation attacks include abuse of constrained and unconstrained delegat

GTFOBins is a curated knowledge base documenting security-related techniques for Unix-based system binaries. It serves as a reference for offensive security research, detailing how standard, pre-installed system utilities can be repurposed to facilitate privilege escalation, restricted environment escapes, and post-exploitation workflows. The project distinguishes itself by cataloging insecure execution paths and misconfigured permissions inherent in common system tools. By identifying legitimate binary functions that can be leveraged to bypass security controls, the repository provides a str

dnscat2 is a DNS tunneling tool and covert command and control server that encapsulates encrypted traffic within DNS queries and responses. It functions as an encrypted DNS proxy designed to bypass network firewalls and establish communication paths when standard outbound ports are blocked. The project enables the creation of covert network channels by acting as an authoritative nameserver. It supports remote command execution through interactive shells and provides a mechanism for tunneling TCP network traffic to reach restricted remote hosts. The system includes capabilities for multiplexe

ngrok is a secure TCP tunneling proxy and API ingress controller that exposes local services to the public internet. It establishes a persistent connection between a local agent and a cloud-based gateway to route traffic to local ports without requiring firewall or router configuration changes. The project provides a global gateway for routing API traffic, which includes built-in support for rate limiting and authentication policy enforcement. It also functions as an IoT device gateway, enabling remote command execution and access control for embedded hardware via a cloud-to-device bridge. A

Ladon is an internal network penetration scanner and vulnerability assessment tool designed to identify high-risk security flaws and assets across network segments. It operates as a fileless security scanner, executing its engine and modules directly in memory to avoid leaving a disk footprint on target systems. The project is distinguished by its integration as a plugin for command beacons, specifically within the Cobalt Strike framework. This allows for memory-resident network discovery and vulnerability detection. It further supports stealth operations through payload and script obfuscatio
