Social-Engineer Toolkit (SET) Description
Developed by Dave Kennedy, the founder of TrustedSec, the Social-Engineer Toolkit (SET) is an open-source tool written in Python that focuses on penetration testing related to social engineering tactics. This toolkit has been showcased at major cybersecurity conferences such as Blackhat, DerbyCon, Defcon, and ShmooCon. With its impressive record of over two million downloads, SET has become the go-to solution for conducting social-engineering penetration tests, receiving robust support from the security community. Its design is geared towards exploiting advanced technological vulnerabilities within social-engineering contexts. TrustedSec emphasizes that social engineering poses one of the most challenging threats to safeguard against and has become increasingly common in today's attack landscape. Consequently, the toolkit serves as a crucial resource for security professionals aiming to enhance their defenses against such sophisticated tactics.

Astra's Pentest is a comprehensive solution for penetration testing. It includes an intelligent vulnerability scanner and in-depth manual pentesting.
The automated scanner performs 10000+ security checks, including security checks for all CVEs listed in the OWASP top 10 and SANS 25. It also conducts all required tests to comply with ISO 27001 and HIPAA.
Astra provides an interactive pentest dashboard which allows users to visualize vulnerability analysis, assign vulnerabilities to team members, collaborate with security experts, and to collaborate with security experts. The integrations with CI/CD platforms and Jira are also available if users don't wish to return to the dashboard each time they want to use it or assign a vulnerability for a team member.

sqlmap
sqlmap is a freely available tool designed for penetration testing that streamlines the identification and exploitation of SQL injection vulnerabilities, enabling the takeover of database servers. It features a robust detection engine alongside an array of specialized tools tailored for experienced penetration testers, offering a comprehensive set of options that facilitate everything from database fingerprinting to retrieving data, as well as accessing the file system and executing commands on the OS through out-of-band methods. Additionally, sqlmap allows for direct database connections without relying on SQL injection by entering DBMS credentials, IP address, port, and the database name. It also automatically identifies various password hash formats and aids in cracking them using dictionary attacks. Users can opt to dump entire database tables, a selection of entries, or specific columns based on their preferences, and can even specify to extract only a certain range of characters from each entry within the columns. This extensive functionality makes sqlmap a valuable asset for security professionals seeking to test and secure their database systems.

Phishing Club
Phishing Club helps security teams run authorized phishing exercises and red team operations from one self hosted platform. Install it on your own server with a single command or run it through Docker, then build, send, and track
campaigns from a web dashboard backed by a REST API.
The tool covers the full workflow: design multi stage lures, target recipients imported by CSV or synced through SCIM, schedule delivery around business hours, and send through SMTP or an OAuth capable API. Results come back as live
analytics, per user event timelines, and emailed PDF reports. Service providers can separate clients through built in multi tenancy, and admin access is protected with MFA and single sign on.
For offensive engagements it adds reverse proxy and remote browser phishing, session capture, content and URL rewriting, traffic obfuscation, JA4 and geo IP controls, and device code attacks.
