Metasploit Framework; however, we highly recommend that you take a look at the
Metasploit Framework Wiki, which is maintained by Rapid7's content team, to ensure
that you have the most up to date information available.
Metasploit Pro and Other Commercial Editions
If you are command line user, but still want access to the commercial features,
don't worry. Metasploit Pro includes its very only console, which is very much like
msfconsole, except it gives you access to most of the features in Metasploit Pro
via command line.
Getting Started with Metasploit
The Metasploit Framework is the foundation on which the commercial products are
built. It is an open source project that provides the infrastructure, content, and
tools to perform penetration tests and extensive security auditing. Thanks to the
open source community and Rapid7's own hard working content team, new modules are
added on a regular basis, which means that the latest exploit is available to you
as soon as it's published.
The commercial editions of Metasploit, which include Pro, Express, Community, and
Nexpose Ultimate, are available to users who prefer to use a web interface to
pentest. In addition to a web interface, some of the commercial editions provide
features that are unavailable in the Metasploit Framework.
Most of the additional features are targeted towards automating and streamlining
common pentest tasks, such as vulnerability validation, social engineering, custom
payload generation, and bruteforce attacks.
First things first. If you haven't installed Metasploit yet, check out these
instructions if you're a commercial user. Check out this page if you're a Framework
user. Otherwise, if you already have Metasploit installed, congratulations! You've
come to the right place to get started.
