Ten security tools you can
pick up and use right now
(and a few extras)

CSE 4/6243
January 28, 2008
Wesley McGrew rwm8@cse.msstate.edu
Introduction
Focus is on “everyday” kinds of tools.

Many security tools are double-edged swords

  The same tool that can be used to test your
  defenses can be used in an attack

  Use these tools in the lab! Never attack a
  network or system without explicit and specific
  permission!
Introduction
This list is inspired by previous “tool” lectures
given by Russ Ward and myself

  http://sectools.org/ also a great resource

Focus is on free tools, unless otherwise stated

  also plenty of good commercial tools out there,
  such as Core Impact
