Should I be worried that you work for the FAA? ;) Check out http://www.nipc.gov/, specifically the CyberNotes at http://www.nipc.gov/cybernotes/cybernotes.htm. They are published every two weeks, and might have a lot of what you are looking for. You might also check with CERT at http://www.cert.org/, since they publish regular bullitens on the most frequent exploits being used, and SANS at http://www.sans.org/, since they publish daily summaries of "news" about hacking. PS: SANS is kind of like the Weekly World News of the computer industry so be careful of it. On Thu, Jun 07, 2001 at 03:58:25PM -0400, Reza CTR Ghaffari wrote:
Where can I get a listing of the most commonly used Penetration testing techniques within past twelve months. I would appreciate any input (white paper, specific web site, individual, institute or company name and phone numbers) that you could provide me. I would like to collect any statistical data regarding usage of these techniques if they are available. I am also looking to find a list of top twenty or so vulnerabilities existing/introduced in the past twelve months. Backup data for each vulnerability would be helpful too. I am writing a paper and like to cross reference list of the vulnerabilities with the penetration techniques that could identify the listed vulnerabilities in the tested system/network.
