I just happened to notice that BackTrack 3.0 Beta [1] has been released [2]. BackTrack is an amalgamation of two previous projects; WHAX and Auditor [3]. This CD is full of useful tools [4] for conducting penetration tests. New features include a python development environment, updatable exploit archives for milw0rm [5] and Securityfocus [6], one-click setup for Nessus and Snort, and the inclusion of the free VMWare Player. I havn't had a lot of time to experiment with it, but I did find that the current beta seems to have poor WiFi support. They do mention WiFi scripts and drivers on their to-do list [7]. |
