Here is a fantastic site for Penetration Testing. It is called, the Penetration Testing Framework.
This framework is created by Kevin Orrey. It outlines a step by step approach to conducting a penetration test. He builds upon the typical stages of a test:
- planning
- conducting
- post-assessment work
he also gives in depth instructions in checklist format for every step of the actual test:
- info gathering
- scanning
- exploiting
- maintaining access
- cleaning tracks
In the framework he lists the sites, and tools to be used and in most cases provides the actual commands to be used.
Overall, this is a fantastic sight that everyone should bookmark and reference often!
