In Detail

If penetration testing is a battle then Metasploit is the deadliest and stealthiest weapon to use. Metasploit is a free, open source penetration testing framework started by H. D. Moore in 2003, which was later acquired by Rapid7. It is based on a modular architecture and all its modules and scripts are integrated with the framework in the form of modules. This makes it fairly easy to integrate any new custom module with the framework and leverage its functionalities. Metasploit is a feature-rich tool that can be integrated with third party tools easily. It is fast, robust, and extensible, and has the ability to manage multiple targets at a time.
