Metasploit vs. NetworkMiner

In security of information it's vital to think like a hacker and it's important to know the tools they use for attacks. So this software gives you the exploits that are already in the wild and to the access of everyone. That's very dangerous so you have to be aware of it.

The NetworkMiner software in my view is a software recommended for small and/or large companies, it may be less useful in small companies or offices, but it can also be used for simple analysis. In medium and large scenarios, it is very useful in analyzing network traffic and identifying possible security flaws, password exposures and weaknesses in the security of solutions and/or technologies used in the internal network.

• Scanning our network for new or existing vulnerable systems.
• Automation of manual tests and exploits to allow what used to be days of effort to be squeezed into hours.
• Metasploit has become an integral part in our validation of new systems before their inclusion in our production network.

Incentivized

• Credential capture exclusive tab
• Graphical interface for data analysis
• Exclusive intuitive host connection listing tab

• If Metasploit could support payloads written in languages other than Ruby, that would be amazing and could help draw in a larger set of contributors.

Incentivized

• MAC listing of hosts in listed connections
• Possibility to start capture focusing on only a specific host

• We have been able to weed out false positives with a more manual vetting of scanned vulnerabilities.
• Our teams have become more well versed in penetration testing with Metasploit to understand the vulnerabilities potentially present.

Incentivized

• Increase in the possibility of identifying security flaws in trafficked data
• Monitor network traffic easily with no financial investment
