About Packet Storm

Global Security Resource

Packet Storm is a unique computer security resource that offers both current and historical security tools, exploits, advisories, and white papers. Since it first came online over ten years ago, Packet Storm has grown to include over fifteen mirrors in four continents, as part of a global effort to keep full disclosure principles alive. Packet Storm is fueled by and for the community.

On the Network Battlefield

The ancient Chinese millitary master Sun Tzu said: "I say: Know your enemy and know yourself; in a hundred battles, you will never be defeated. When you are ignorant of the enemy but know yourself, your chances of winning or losing are equal. If ignorant both of your enemy and of yourself, you are sure to be defeated in every battle." This maxim applies to the battlefield that is today's modern network, just as it has to all of the battlefields throughout humanity's long and strife ridden history.

Packet Storm provides network security professionals, researchers, and all other interested individuals with the ability to analyze and learn from the tools, processes and mindsets of their opponents, as well as offering the tools needed to build and test defenses against them.
