Samurai Web Testing Framework
Last week I had a student ask me about website pen-testing programs. I told him about a new framework I had heard about called Samurai Web Testing Framework. Samurai WTF is a Live-CD that uses Ubuntu as the host OS. It comes preloaded with several popular programs that are used for testing websites and web applications.
I haven’t had much time to investigate this tool but it seems like BackTrack for Web Testers. I have to say from a themes point of view I really like the “samurai” and “Edo” splash screens and wallpaper I think it adds some nice details.
You can visit the main website here and download the first version of the Live-CD here. You will need to login as User “samurai” and Password “samurai” I got lucky on my second try logging in. Once you login the README gives you the user name and password. I thought that was funny…
I would like to have time to try this out but I don’t see that happening anytime soon. I would really like to hear from anyone using this tool. If you do download it and try it out please post comments on what you think about it. I will post a follow-up when I have the time.
