Bjorn is a penetration testing framework that automates network scanning, credential brute-forcing, vulnerability assessment, and data exfiltration, all coordinated through an event-driven task pipeline and controlled via a web-based dashboard. Its modular plugin architecture allows independent security modules to be loaded and chained together, with an asynchronous network scanner discovering live hosts and open ports without blocking the main execution flow.
The framework distinguishes itself by integrating a credential brute-force engine that systematically attempts login combinations against network services, alongside a vulnerability assessment module that matches service fingerprints against a local database of known exploits. Post-exploitation data exfiltration capabilities extract sensitive files and database contents from compromised services, while a web-based control interface provides real-time monitoring and task management through RESTful API calls.
For physical monitoring, Bjorn includes an e-Paper display driver that shows real-time operation status on a low-power e-ink screen, complementing the browser-accessible operation dashboard. The project is implemented in Python and provides a comprehensive set of tools for security assessment workflows.
