Intro to Metasploit
Find And Exploit Vulnerabilities Automatically Using Metasploit
Metasploit is a penetration testing framework that helps you find and exploit vulnerabilities.
The Metasploit Framework is one of the most useful testing tools available to security professionals. Using Metasploit, you can access disclosed exploits for a wide variety of applications and operating systems. You can automatically scan, test, and exploit systems using code that other hackers have written.
Metasploit also provides a development platform for you to write your own security tools or exploit code.
Today, I am going to guide you through the basics of how to use Metasploit: how to install Metasploit, use the framework, and exploit a vulnerability.
