Tools Update (14 Jan 2013)

My slightly irregular update at the moment on new and updated Information Security tools that I have come across or use. The tools are mainly those for PenTesting although other tools are sometimes included. As a bit of background into how I find these tools, I keep a close watch on twitter and other websites to find updates or new releases, I also search for pen testing and security projects on Source Forge. Some of the best sites I have found for details of new tools and releases are http://www.toolswatch.org/, http://tools.hackerjournals.com/


Burp Suite Professional

v1.5.04
This release adds an in-tool repository for the new extensibility APIs. The Extender / APIs tab lists all of the interfaces available in the current build of Burp, and lets you browse these and save the interface and Javadoc files locally.
