Re: OWASP Top 10 penetration testing software?

[Nathalie Vaiser <nvaiser () gmail com>]

Here is a list of different tools from my notes. I don't recall which
web site I got this list from. If the hyperlinked URLs don't show up
and you
need the web site address for any of these just let me know.

(sorry if this is bit messy, in my Evernote I have it all hyperlinked
and formatted but this mailing list won't accept anything other than
plain text messages)
