The Metasploit Framework is a development platform for creating
|
|
|
|
|
security tools and exploits. The framework is used by network security
|
|
|
|
|
professionals to perform penetration tests, system administrators to
|
|
|
|
|
verify patch installations, product vendors to perform regression
|
|
|
|
|
testing, and security researchers world-wide. The framework is written
|
|
|
|
|
in the Ruby programming language and includes components written in C
|
|
|
|
|
and assembler.
