Subject: Tools to use for Penetration Testing?

Hello

I am interested in getting started as a white hat hacker/pen tester.

I would like to know what tools I should get familiar with, and be
able to use to be a pen-tester.

I only know of a few at the moment, and of them, I only use 2 (NMap
and Wireshark).

Can I please receive recommendations on tools to use?

Thanks in advance,

Chip Panarchy

PS: I am currently in training towards my CCNA and (maybe) MCSE.
