[+] You’re a Pentester, and a company asked you to pentest their system because they realized that someone behind his computer messing with the system. You bring your tools arsenal and start doing penetration testing stuff. Unfortunately, all of your tools have failed to detect and exploit the system. The person who is responsible of information security asked you a full-detailed report of security holes and how you found them (used tools and techniques…). What do you do when all tools fell down? You write in the report that the available tools are sucks? If you’re that stubborn penetration tester that enjoys challenges, you’ll look for the other ways to catch up that boy who was playing with the system. Here come your programming skills, which is the only way to prove your existence in penetration testing marathon. Open source software have a huge community, maybe if you can customize an existing open source tool or develop your own one (maybe based on another tool) will works and let you finish your work. We saw many great open source tools on the internet, and most of them are written in Python, Sqlmap and SET are the best examples. XSSer, Nmap scripts written in python and many more So the questions come to head: What kind of things do I need to master in python to be that stubborn pentester? pytesting.blogspot.de/2013/09/introducing-pytesting-concept.html
