The following is a brief summary of my experience during my intership at ELIXIR.

Introduction

As a postgraduate student in Computer Science, my plan was to apply for a summer internship position that would suit my interest in both the field of bioinformatics and software development in Python. Given that by the end of the academic year we were amidst a global pandemic, I was lucky enough to get an internship opportunity with ELIXIR, which I discovered through Google Summer of Code. Providing absolute flexibility regarding both work hours and location, it was the ideal situation for me. The best part however, turned out to be the immensely productive cooperation and the continuous support from my mentors, Alex and Ania. The ELIXIR project's team is an excelent environment to work in. It's very diverse, pleasant, energetic, and professional, all at the same time. The project'

This is a final report of the work which was done as part of the PyPen GSOC 2018 Project.

Abstract

Development of a Python library for penetration testers. The library will include a set of tools for performing the basic tasks for attacking a remote host. It will include reconnaissance tools such as modules that will be able to collect data for a specific target either through the web or through user input. Moreover, other tools will be developed to create custom dictionaries for username and password attacks. Other attack techniques that will be supported include DoS attack, BruteForce attack as well as Inclusion attack. The library will also include various statistical functions for extracting additional information from a captured host.
