I'm fixin' (damn, but it's nice to live in the South :-) to flang up a
bunch of websites for friends and clients using WebGUI, and it occured
to me that if there was an automated tester for website security,
that'd be a good thing to play with.
In my search therefore, I came across a pretty spiffy site that
apparently *used* to be called Ideahamster (and indeed, that's the
domain name still) which includes the "Open Source Security Testing
Methodology" manual.
http://www.ideahamster.org/
Hain't read it yet, but it's got a groovy name, no?
If anyone has pointers to any *other* frameworks for this sort of
thing; I'd appreciate hearing about them.
Cheers,
