Most Important Penetration Testing Commands Cheat Sheet for Linux Machine
- jftuga 9y agoWow. nmap is not listed.
- thesmallestcat 9y agoExpected a bunch of nmap commands, got `echo 8.8.8.8`.
- krackers 9y agoIsn't this just general unix-fu? What's pentesting specific here?
- turbografx16 9y agoYeah that was the general consensus when this was posted on Reddit, too.
- natecavanaugh 9y agoI see so much overlap between these commands and what's available on Unix systems in general, such as macOS, it'd be nice to see which ones are available cross-platform, and which are Linux specific. Also, it would be a bit more useful if this article actually explained how these would be useful for penetration testing.
- snvzz 9y agoprotip: If you need this cheatsheet, you shouldn't be doing pentesting.
- dvfjsdhgfv 9y agoThe bar gets lower and lower these days...
- rando444 9y agoI dunno, I've never met someone that does pen-testing for a living that wasn't extremely good at their job. I'm sure those people exist, but this article isn't proof of anything other than that someone can make a webpage and put some words on it.
- gwillz 9y agoConfused as to why this is titled for pen-testing. Where's /var/log/btmp and nmap?

- erAck 9y agoSo this is what pen-testers need to know when getting paid to pen-test foo. Do not trust anything that claims security because of being "extensively pen-tested".
