The Fedora community has made the presentation of "Red Team”A new specialized Special Interest Group (SIG) that aims to become the reference at the Red Hat community level, in cybersecurity.
The mission you have is "To be the catalyst in the Linux business community that enables Computer Network Operations, the open source way." The team has as initiative to collaborate in Fedora Security Spin, this in order to create new tools, but focused on the offensive type.
On the Fedora Wiki Red Team has announced the creation of:
- ELEM (Enterprise Linux Exploit Mapper): uses a security plug-in from the yum package manager and the Red Hat Security Data API to map CVEs to known exploits that are not out of the box. This project will initially build on the CentOS vulnerabilities.
- Fedora Security Data API: will offer CVE mappings and security data to Red Hat Security Data API.
- FCTL (Fedora Cyber Test Lab): is an Open Source implementation of the Cyber-ITL dynamic analysis approach that examines stripped binaries for purposes of complexity, application harmonization, developer hygiene, and susceptibility to residues.
- Network Container: The adoption of Open Container Image Format it would have to make the RPM package format more and more irrelevant. Red Container will work in a containerized way on Kali Linux and will be able to work on any GNU / Linux distribution.
Within the other purposes of Red Team is to revive old projects, that were focused on computer security, such as the Penetration Testing Execution Standard.
This is a new standard designed to provide both companies and security service providers with a common language and scope for conducting penetration testing (ie security assessments).
