Survey on METASPLOIT Framework

Abstract

Penetration testing is a uniquely challenging job. Paid to think like a criminal to use guerilla tactics to advantage, and to find the weakest links in a highly intricate net of defenses. The most widely used tool by the penetration tester is Metasploit Framework. Metasploit Framework is a framework for developing and executing exploit code against a remote target machine. It is highly flexible, efficient and time saving for the Pentesters. It has many numbers of modules which helps a lot for the Pentesting. It can be easily configured with various other tools like set, nmap, etc and even the GUI interface Armitage is widely used. This open source platform provides a consistent, reliable library of constantly updated exploits and offers a complete development environment for building new tools and automating every aspect of a penetration test. These products provide a different perspective on how to conduct and automate large-scale penetration tests. The Metasploit Framework is an infamously volatile the code base is updated dozens of times every day by a core group of developers and submissions from hundreds of community contributors.
