After doing what Paul said you have the best starting
point here: http://www.isecom.org/osstmm/
Download from there your copy of OSSTMM (2.1.1 if you
prefer not to register for gold/silver team). The
document will tell you what, where and when to do
things to enforce your network security.

Have secure fun,
Dan

Hi ya all,


I won't to start pen-testing my own company's
network, but I don't really know where to start ...
I've heard a lot of NMAP, IKE-SCAN, ftester and so
on and so on, but wher do you start ???



Start by getting permisssion _in writing_ defining
scope of testing,
permssion to test, reporting requirements and rules
of engagement.
