GREENBONE OPENVAS, THE OPEN SOURCE TOOL THAT CLOSES VULNERABILITIES
Pentest Magazine
by Andrea Cavallini
1y ago
Vulnerability assessment is one of the most important components of risk management, with a lot of enterprise tools provided to reach this target. One of the first questions is: can we have anything in the open source world that can provide us enterprise tool features? Tools designed to be open source exist, NERVE (my personal fork of NERVE project https://github.com/kavat/nerve already described in a previous topic :-)) and OpenVAS (https://github.com/greenbone/openvas-scanner, developed by Greenbone) are the two main alternatives. Both are based on NMAP (https://github.com/nmap/nmap) and pro ..read more

Pentest Magazine
by Eliot Eggers
1y ago
The Theory behind WiFi Jamming in the RF Spectrum You might have seen several WiFi jamming devices on Chinese sites such as Aliexpress, Wish, or Alibaba.  However, Signal Jammers are very different from WiFi deauthers, since the first one creates a lot of signal interference in the RF spectrum while the other one basically injects forged frames to disconnect the WiFi clients from the WiFi router or access Point. So what is a Jammer? Image 1: Example of Signal Jammers In a nutshell: A WiFi jammer is a device that creates a lot of random noise to prevent communication on a specific WiFi ba ..read more
