![5. Armitage
• Armitage is a graphical cyber attack management tool for the
Metasploit Project that visualizes targets and recommends exploits.
It is a free and open source network security tool notable for its
contributions to red team collaboration allowing for shared
sessions, data, and communication through a single Metasploit
instance.[11]
6. Cobalt Strike
• Cobalt Strike is a collection of threat emulation tools provided by
Strategic Cyber LLC (https://cobaltstrike.com/) to work with the
Metasploit Framework. Cobalt Strike includes all features of
Armitage and adds post-exploitation tools, in addition to report
generation features.

- 2. Introduction • The Metasploit is a computer security that provides information about security vulnerabilities and aids in penetration testing and IDS signature development. • Its best-known sub-project is the open source Metasploit Framework, a tool for developing and executing exploit code against a remote target machine. • The Metasploit is well known for its anti-forensic and evasion tools, some of which are built into the Metasploit Framework. Gandhinagar Institute Of technology 2
- 3. History • Metasploit was created by H. D. Moore in 2003 as a portable network tool using Perl. By 2007, the Metasploit Framework had been completely rewritten in Ruby. • On October 21, 2009, the Metasploit Project announced that it had been acquired by Rapid7, a security company that provides unified vulnerability management solutions. • Like comparable commercial products such as Immunity's Canvas or Core Security Technologies' Core Impact, Metasploit can be used to test the vulnerability of computer systems or to break into remote systems. Gandhinagar Institute Of technology 3
- 4. • Like many information security tools, Metasploit can be used for both legitimate and unauthorized activities. • Since the acquisition of the Metasploit Framework, Rapid7 has added two open core proprietary editions called Metasploit Express and Metasploit Pro. • Metasploit's emerging position as the de facto exploit development framework led to the release of software vulnerability advisories often accompanied by a third party Metasploit exploit module that highlights the exploitability, risk and remediation of that particular bug. Gandhinagar Institute Of technology 4
- 5. • Metasploit 3.0 began to include fuzzing tools, used to discover software vulnerabilities, rather than just exploits for known bugs. This avenue can be seen with the integration of the lorcon wireless (802.11) toolset into Metasploit 3.0 in November 2006. Metasploit 4.0 was released in August 2011.

- 6. Metasploit Framework • The basic steps for exploiting a system using the Framework include: 1. Choosing and configuring an exploit (code that enters a target system by taking advantage of one of its bugs; about 900 different exploits for Windows, Unix/Linux and Mac OS X systems are included). 2. Optionally checking whether the intended target system is susceptible to the chosen exploit. Gandhinagar Institute Of technology 6
- 7. 3. Choosing and configuring a payload (code that will be executed on the target system upon successful entry for instance, a remote shell or a VNC server). 4. Choosing the encoding technique so that the intrusion- prevention system (IPS) ignores the encoded payload. 5. Executing the exploit. Gandhinagar Institute Of technology 7
- 8. Metasploit interfaces 1. Metasploit Framework Edition • The free version. It contains a command line interface, third-party import, manual exploitation and manual brute forcing. This free version of metasploit project also includes Zenmap, a well known ports-scanner and a compiler for Ruby, the language in which this version of metasploit was written. 2. Metasploit Community Edition • In October 2011, Rapid7 released Metasploit Community Edition, a free, web-based user interface for Metasploit. Metasploit Community is based on the commercial functionality of the paid-for editions with a reduced set of features, including network discovery, module browsing and manual exploitation. Metasploit Community is included in the main installer. Gandhinagar Institute Of technology 8
- 9. 3. Metasploit Express • In April 2010, Rapid7 released Metasploit Express, an open-core commercial edition for security teams who need to verify vulnerabilities. It offers a graphical user interface, integrates nmap for discovery, and adds smart brute forcing as well as automated evidence collection. 4. Metasploit Pro 3. In October 2010, Rapid7 added Metasploit Pro, an open-core commercial Metasploit edition for penetration testers. Metasploit Pro adds onto Metasploit Express with features such as Quick Start Wizards/Meta Modules, building and managing social engineering campaigns, web application testing, an advanced Pro Console, dynamic payloads for anti-virus evasion, integration with Nexpose for ad-hoc vulnerability scans, and VPN pivoting.
