Description | [October 14, 2015] From Exploit to Metasploit
Speaker: Dr. Sami Zhioua

Summary: An exploit is a piece of software or a sequence of commands that takes advantage of a vulnerable machine. Exploits can be written in any programming or scripting language (c, python, perl, ruby, etc.). However, a common template (language-independent) has been introduced through the Metasploit framework and is becoming the de-facto standard to write exploits. In this seminar, we describe the full process used by penetration testers to discover a vulnerability, write an exploit and convert it to a metasploit module. |
