Offensive security is one of the state of the art measures to protect enterprises and organizations. Penetration testing, broadly called pentesting, is a branch of offensive security designed to find, rate and exploit these vulnerabilities, in order to assess the security posture of an organization. This process is often time-consuming and the quantity of information that pentesters need to manage might also be difficult to handle. This project takes a practical approach to solve the automation of pentesting and proposes a usable tool, called PTHelper. This open-source tool has been designed in a modular way to be easily upgradable by the pentesting community, and uses state of the art tools and artificial intelligence to achieve its objective.
