Re: Cloud based scanner/attack platform

[Michael Allen <sector876 () gmail com>]

Hey Chris,
I just did this. So I was going to go with linode initially but then they
got hacked. I tried Amazon AWS but they said the activity went against
their terms of service. I ended up going with goscomb.net. I also had them
install KALI...no issues.
Regards,
Michael
