For a point and shoot (free) tool, Paros (www.parosproxy.org) is probably your best bet. But even more effective than Paros on it's own is to read the OWASP guide to building secure web applications and then applying that knowledge using Paros.

Hi All,

I am looking for an open source pen-test suite that can be used to point at one of my web sites.

I know this is a touchy subject. There are commercial tools out there that perform these functions, but for small buisnesses this is a roll of the dice pricy as you may not know exactly how good these tools are.

Any recommendations? Did I miss some tools on OWASP?

Thank you,
Mike
