Metasploit was created by H. D. Moore in 2003 as a portable network tool using Perl.By 2007, the Metasploit Framework had been completely rewritten in Ruby.On October 21, 2009, the Metasploit Project announced [4] that it had been acquired by Rapid7, a security company that provides unified vulnerability management solutions.
Virtual machines emulate a complete host computer, on which a conventional operating system may boot and run as on actual hardware. The guest operating system runs sandboxed in the sense that it does not function natively on the host and can only access host resources through the emulator.
Proxmox Virtual Environment (Proxmox VE or PVE) is a virtualization platform designed for the provisioning of hyper-converged infrastructure. Proxmox allows deployment and management of virtual machines and containers. [7] [8] It is based on a modified Debian LTS kernel. [9]
The advantages of virtual machines are well explored elsewhere. [3] [4] Virtual machines can operate in isolation (for example as a guest operating system on a personal computer) or under a unified virtualized environment overseen by a supervisory virtual machine monitor or "hypervisor" process.
IBM developed the concept of hypervisors (virtual machines in CP-40 and CP-67) and in 1972 provided it for the S/370 as Virtual Machine Facility/370. [2] IBM introduced the Start Interpretive Execution (SIE) instruction (designed specifically for the execution of virtual machines) in 1983 as part of 370-XA architecture on the IBM 3081, as well as VM/XA versions of VM to exploit it.
OpenVAS (Open Vulnerability Assessment Scanner, originally known as GNessUs) is the scanner component of Greenbone Vulnerability Management (GVM), a software framework of several services and tools offering vulnerability scanning and vulnerability management.
