Features

• Penetration Testing Platforms - Serves as a comprehensive environment for security professionals to develop, test, and execute exploits.
• Exploit Frameworks - Provides a collection of interchangeable components to define complex attack logic.
• Exploitation Frameworks - Provides a modular platform for developing and executing custom security payloads and exploit logic.
• Exploit Execution Engines - Targets known vulnerabilities to gain unauthorized access or execute arbitrary commands on a remote machine.
• Memory Injection Techniques - Executes code directly within process memory space to avoid writing artifacts to the disk.
• Post-Exploitation Frameworks - Manages persistent access and gathers data on compromised systems to understand the scope of a security incident.
• Post-Exploitation Toolkits - Facilitates long-term session persistence, privilege escalation, and sensitive data collection following successful system access.
• Remote Command Execution Tools - Manages persistent sessions and delivers custom payloads to compromised systems.
• Transport Abstractions - Decouples command and control logic from underlying network protocols to maintain persistent remote connections.
• Payload Development Tools - Crafts custom code designed to bypass security controls during authorized security assessment activities.
• Vulnerability Assessment Tools - Tests networked systems to confirm if known security flaws are exploitable.
