RTFB

and because i'm deep into the last parts of a new release (for my job), here's a little thought i'd love to share :

Metasploit the famous exploit framework, allowing everyone to execute and study various exploits on any plateform is now rising to a more solid status. Originally the project was an OpenSource project made of many exploit developpers and friends contributing to build a strong and up-to-date exploit database. But the feature requests and bug fix requests were getting so frequent that a company got into this.

And now Metasploit is a product maintained by Rapid7 a security oriented company, and the lead developper of this software are now working for rapid7 24/7.

So i guess it will become an even more efficient tool, and you can read about the news by a contributor himself on this thread : http://seclists.org/metasploit/2009/q4/93

Enjoy

One of these days when i was trying to find out more about scientific issues for my projects, i came accross many websites trying to sell me thesis and published documents about what i needed to know. But one of the most exciting discovery that i made was of this website : http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/

This website is just like google books and it's a growing library of scientific publications and thesis, so if you need inspired thinking and get tired of Ted's, you should just check it out :

This project is part of the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting which is, in my view, one of the most useful project for science and computer technologies. Because it's always a first step toward knowledge and science to be able to share data and use them as we please (e.g. for Machine Learning or Collaborative Intelligence) : http://www.openarchives.org. Enjoy !

This is so true !
