Summary

In this chapter, we talked about common tools for scanning and information gathering, vulnerability analysis, stress tests, and exploitation tools. Using these tools, along with similar tools, will allow you to perform these tasks in the next chapters, and as well as help you test your networks, understand the vulnerabilities you have discovered, and use protection mechanisms to protect yourself against them.

In the next chapter, we will learn how to use the tools that we learned about in this chapter to find protocol vulnerabilities.
