Social Engineering Toolkit

The Social Engineering Toolkit (SET) was created by David Kennedy [ReL1K] and the SET development team of JR DePre [pr1me], Joey Furr [j0fer], and Thomas Werth. With a wide variety of attacks available, this toolkit is an absolute "must have" for anyone who is serious about performing penetration testing. We will only provide a brief introduction to the Social Engineering Toolkit. SET is simple to use and the SET development team has created excellent documentation that is freely available at http://www.social-engineer.org/framework/Computer_Based_Social_Engineering_Tools:_Social_Engineer_Toolkit_(SET).

SET comes preinstalled on BackTrack and can be invoked at the command line using:

/pentest/exploits/set# ./set
