Nytro Posted February 16, 2016 Report Posted February 16, 2016 Metasploit: Using Workspaces Published on February 15, 2016 By HollyGraceful The Metasploit database is great for tracking a Penetration Testing engagement, the biggest the engagement the more that the database can offer you. It tracks alive hosts, pwned boxes and stolen loot – plus it timestamps actions too just in case you need to track what happened when. Before you get knee deep in the metasploit database you’ll need to get everything set up. If you’re using Kali then things should work out of the box if, like me, you use Fedora then check this link out – you can get database setup instructions here! To see if you’ve managed to hit all of the right settings you can test the database connection: msf > db_status [*] postgresql connected to msf_database msf > If your output looks something like the above then you’re good to go. When it comes to PenTesting, it’s a really good idea to keep everything seperate – all of you scan results, vulns and loot. Metasploit allows you to keep things need like this through “Workspaces”. There’s a default workspace, and you can add a new one per assessment easily. Link: https://www.gracefulsecurity.com/metasploit-using-workspaces/ Quote
