## What it is
A collection of Python scripts written for use during penetration testing engagements, organized into categories like brute forcing, enumeration, exploits, phishing, OSINT, and wireless testing. It is a personal toolkit rather than a polished product, with scripts of varying scope and quality.

## Use cases
- brute force passwords during a pentest
- enumerate DNS, web apps, and users on an engagement
- gather open source intelligence on a target
- run phishing campaigns for authorized testing
- test traditional and NoSQL databases for weaknesses
- scan and parse network traffic
- test wireless networks
- collect data after gaining a foothold

## When to choose
- you are a penetration tester who wants a grab-bag of ready-made Python scripts
- you need quick utilities for enumeration, OSINT, or password attacks
- you want small, readable scripts to adapt into your own toolkit

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained, supported security product with a stable API
- you want a single cohesive framework rather than loose scripts
- you need guaranteed updates or official licensing clarity (license is non-standard)
