Dear Pen-Test Moderator, Hello, Basically, First I would like test our firewall with application layer and after then I would like to test different applications on the system. Best Regards. ----------------------- Farrukh Ahmed System Engineer ----------------------- -----Original Message----- From: Pen-Test Moderator [mailto:pen-test () amoebazone com] Sent: 02 May, 2007 10:08 AM To: fahmad () tradekey com; pen-test () securityfocus com Subject: RE: Penetration Testing This is a rather broad general question with a bazillion ways to answer. What specifically are you trying to test; the firewall, the application layer, the server/network? While there are tools which can touch on some or all of these focus areas with varying degrees of success, without more information on your particular needs it will be difficult for list members to provide you with solid recommendations on tools or techniques. I'm hoping Farrukh responds with more detail for us but I let this post through to the list in hopes that members could take one of the possible vectors I list above and run with it. -- Erin Carroll Moderator SecurityFocus pen-test list "Do Not Taunt Happy-Fun Ball"
