Storing and managing pentest data with SQLite
SQLite is a lightweight, serverless database engine that provides an efficient way to store and manage data collected during pentesting. This section explores how to leverage SQLite in conjunction with Bash scripting to create a system for organizing and querying pentest findings.
SQLite offers several advantages for pentesters:
- Portability: SQLite databases are self-contained files, making them easy to transfer and back up.
- No setup required: Unlike full-fledged database servers, SQLite doesn’t need installation or configuration.
- Efficient querying: SQLite supports SQL, allowing for complex data retrieval and analysis.
- Language integration: Many programming languages, including Bash through command-line tools, can interact with SQLite databases.
In this section, we’ll cover the following topics:
- How to create SQLite databases using Bash commands?
- How to write scripts that parse tool...
