1
00:00:00,850 --> 00:00:06,610
‫Because it's one of the most powerful exploit frameworks, and it has a free version with wide functionality.

2
00:00:06,970 --> 00:00:09,160
‫We're going to use Metasploit throughout the course.

3
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:14,990
‫Metasploit Project is the most used penetration testing framework in the world.

4
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:20,870
‫It can be used to test the vulnerability of computer systems or to break into remote systems.

5
00:00:22,690 --> 00:00:27,850
‫As I mentioned before, Metasploit was created by H.D. Moore in 2003 using Pearl.

6
00:00:28,660 --> 00:00:33,670
‫By 2007, the Metasploit Framework had been completely rewritten and ruby.

7
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:38,820
‫In 2009, the project was acquired by Rapid7.

8
00:00:39,540 --> 00:00:44,730
‫Now they have a free and open source version, Metasploit Framework and a commercial version Metasploit

9
00:00:44,730 --> 00:00:45,090
‫Pro.

10
00:00:46,740 --> 00:00:53,070
‫It's best known sub project is the open source Metasploit Framework, a tool for developing and executing

11
00:00:53,070 --> 00:00:55,830
‫exploit code against a remote target machine.

12
00:00:57,150 --> 00:01:02,760
‫The MSF console is probably the most popular interface to the Metasploit Framework MSF.

13
00:01:03,570 --> 00:01:09,390
‫It provides an all in one centralized console and allows you efficient access to virtually all of the

14
00:01:09,390 --> 00:01:11,550
‫options available in MSF.

15
00:01:12,330 --> 00:01:18,390
‫MSF console may seem intimidating at first, but once you learn the syntax of the commands, you'll

16
00:01:18,390 --> 00:01:21,930
‫learn to appreciate the power of utilising this interface.
