Free Metasploit Community Edition released

Metasploit Community Edition simplifies network discovery and vulnerability verification for specific exploits, increasing the effectiveness of vulnerability scanners such as Nexpose - for free.

Easily manage and conduct penetration tests

Cyber criminals are successful in penetrating networks of enterprises and government agencies every day, creating huge security and compliance issues.

Metasploit Community Edition simplifies network discovery and penetration testing spot-checks with specific exploits, increasing the effectiveness of vulnerability scanners such as Nexpose - for free.

Importing third-party vulnerability scanner reports, it helps prioritize remediation and eliminates false positives, increasing productivity and providing true security risk intelligence. Defenders can demonstrate the impact of vulnerabilities to IT operations to obtain buy-in for remediation.

The capabilities of Metasploit Community include:

• - A simple graphical user interface, which makes it much easier to get started with vulnerability verification and security assessments than command-line based alternatives.
• - Network discovery, enabling users to map their networks by identifying hosts, scanning for open ports and fingerprinting their operating systems and services.
• - Integration with vulnerability scanners, so scan data from Rapid7 Nexpose, Nmap and a dozen other solutions can be imported directly into Metasploit Community. Nexpose scans can also be initiated and sites imported directly from within Metasploit Community.
• -Basic exploitation, enabling users to verify which vulnerabilities are actually exploitable and must be remediated - and which ones don't. This increases productivity and reduces the cost of a vulnerability management program and helps prevent data breaches.
• -Module browser, leveraging the world's largest database of quality-assured exploits so users can easily find the right exploit. Each module includes a reliability ranking, indicating its typical success rate and impact on the target system.
