On March 22 last month, EH-Net presented a webcast with James "egyp7" Lee who took the participants on a technical deep-dive through the new features of the free and open source Metasploit Framework version 3.6, focusing on techniques valuable to professional penetration testers in red teams and consulting firms.  This included post exploitation modules (a more powerful replacement for Meterpreter scripts) and using platform-agnostic payloads for increased pwnage.  Before the lengthy Q&A, he also covered some of the feature highlights in the commercial editions, Metasploit Pro and Metasploit Express. Webcast participants and now viewers of this video should be familiar with the concepts of Metasploit and penetration testing.

James "egyp7" Lee has been contributing to the open source Metasploit Framework as a core developer and project manager since April 2008. Before joining Rapid7 to work on Metasploit in a full-time position, he discovered numerous vulnerabilities in SCADA and Industrial Control Systems at Idaho National Laboratory. James has presented at DEF CON, Black Hat USA, Black Hat DC, SANS Process Control & SCADA Security Summit, and other events.
