Summary

SET is a great tool to generate quick client-side exploits and can be very helpful in testing the user-based part of penetration testing. Throughout this chapter, we have covered techniques and mechanisms in the context of generating quick client-side exploits, generating media-based exploits, attacking the client side with website-based social engineering attacks, and automating SET exploitation. An excellent documentation about SET for further reading is available at https://github.com/trustedsec/social-engineer-toolkit/blob/master/readme/User_Manual.pdf.

In the next chapter, we will look at speeding up penetration testing using various techniques and customized options in Metasploit. The next chapter will help us keep up with the time constraints while conducting a penetration test.
