Welcome on NETwork Security Consortium !

NETSC aims to provide free access to white papers, sample configuration examples, discusions about networking security and networking at all ; At this time, the first goal is to provide the PENTOO live cd, a complete and well done gentoo based live cd integrating a penetration tools set. Check immediately the main page of PENTOO for informations and download.

Our first focus is security at gateway level and VPN. However we hope to extend the scope and that other people want to publish their own documents or tools on this site.

We do not slack and does not sleep either

Yeah, there’s a small delay in the release but we can tell you that it’s worth it. At least for the happy owners of recent nvidia and ati cards. Since we use the very latests drivers from both above providers, there’s some issues with the drivers compatibility but we’re working it out.

Meanwhile, check those little screenie teasers and hold your breath!

Later ZC and Grimmlin

Hey, remember Pentoo ?

Surprise surprise, activity on this site ?

We wanted to apology for the kind of abandonment this site has been for the past month/years. We’ve all been busy with real life and couldn’t give much time on these projects.

We haven’t really stopped working on pentoo, and actually we are working really hard on the new version. We already have the base kernel 2.6.28 and are currently patching all the wireless stuff, aufs and lzma being already done.

We should have a beta by the end of January, and we’ll release our catalyst spec files and portage tree once the new version goes out.

Meanwhile, you can head over to #pentoo and help us alpha/beta test if you’d like to.

Cheers
Grimmlin & Zero_Chaos

Major changes include kernel 2.6.16-gentoo-r7, wifi injection support and some new applications. I also added the gtk installer and plaintoo.
