Penetration Testing: RE: Tools to use for Penetration Testing?

["Rivest, Philippe" <PRivest () transforce ca>]

You should look up the net for these, it is very easy to build your own
toolbox that will match your need. 
Here is what I already have shared twice on this list, you could also go
check out insecure.org and many other sites

Objet : 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.
