Cloud-based penetration testing platform bundling 20+ tools (Nmap, OpenVAS, WPScan, SQLMap, ZAP) in a single web interface — no local installation required.
Pentest Robots automate multi-tool workflows by chaining recon, scanning, and exploitation into repeatable sequences with unified reporting.
Covers the full pentest lifecycle: reconnaissance (subdomain discovery, port scanning), web vulnerability scanning (SQLi, XSS), CMS scanning (WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, SharePoint), and exploitation.
Generates customizable DOCX report templates with severity ratings and remediation steps for client delivery.
Pentest-Tools.com is a cloud-based penetration testing platform that bundles 20+ security tools into a single web interface. Reconnaissance, vulnerability scanning, exploitation, and reporting without installing anything locally.
The platform wraps well-known open-source tools (Nmap, OpenVAS, WPScan, SQLMap, ZAP) in a managed cloud environment and adds automation through what it calls Pentest Robots.

What is Pentest-Tools.com?
According to the OWASP Testing Guide, a thorough web security assessment involves reconnaissance, vulnerability scanning, and exploitation in sequence. The platform aims to replace the workflow of switching between a dozen different CLI tools during a penetration test. You add a target, pick the tools you need, and run them from a browser. Results aggregate in one place, and you can generate a report when done.
It is not a single-purpose DAST tool. It is closer to a pentest workbench that includes DAST capabilities alongside network scanning, recon, and exploitation features.
Who Is This For?
Pentest-Tools.com targets security consultants and pentest teams who want cloud-hosted tooling without managing their own infrastructure. If you already have Nmap, OpenVAS, and WPScan set up locally, the main value-add is the unified interface, automation, and report generation.
Key features
Reconnaissance Suite
Google dorking, subdomain discovery, domain association, virtual host discovery, port scanning via Nmap, and web technology detection. Maps the target’s attack surface before you start scanning.
Web Vulnerability Scanning
Tests for SQL injection, XSS, OS command injection, and directory traversal. Uses ML-based classification to reduce false positives. Dedicated XSS scanner powered by OWASP ZAP.
CMS Vulnerability Scanning
WordPress scanning via WPScan, plus dedicated scanners for Drupal, Joomla, and SharePoint. Checks for vulnerable plugins, themes, and core version issues.
Network Vulnerability Scanning
OpenVAS integration for infrastructure-level vulnerability assessment. SSL/TLS scanning detects POODLE, Heartbleed, ROBOT, and weak cipher configurations.
Pentest Robots
Automated workflows that chain reconnaissance, scanning, and exploitation tools together. Define a sequence once, then run it against any target. Results compile into a unified report.
Reporting
Customizable DOCX report templates. Export findings with evidence, severity ratings, and remediation steps. Useful if you deliver pentest reports to clients.
Tool categories
Reconnaissance
Google Hacking — discovers indexed information about targets
Subdomain Discovery — maps subdomains via DNS and web scraping
Port Scanning — TCP/UDP discovery via Nmap integration
Web Technology Detection — identifies server and client-side tech stacks
Domain Association — finds related domains and properties
Virtual Host Discovery — locates multiple sites on single IPs
Vulnerability scanning
Website Scanner — SQL injection, XSS, command injection, directory traversal (covering OWASP Top 10 categories A03:Injection and A07:Cross-Site Scripting)
SQL Injection Scanner — deep web inspection for SQLi
Network Scanner — OpenVAS integration for infrastructure CVEs
SSL/TLS Scanner — protocol and cipher configuration checks
Exploitation
Sniper Auto-Exploiter — automated exploitation of known vulnerabilities
Password Auditor — weak credential testing
URL Fuzzer — hidden content and directory discovery
SQLi Exploiter — SQL injection exploitation via SQLMap
XSS PoC Generator — proof-of-concept generation for confirmed XSS
Pentest Robots
If you run the same sequence of tools on every engagement, set up a Pentest Robot. It chains recon through exploitation automatically and saves time on repetitive work.
Getting started
1
Create an account — Sign up at pentest-tools.com. Some tools offer limited free usage; full features require a paid plan.
2
Add a target — Enter the domain, IP address, or URL you want to test. The platform verifies you own or have permission to scan the target.
3
Pick your tools — Choose from 20+ tools organized by category: recon, web scanning, CMS scanning, network scanning, or exploitation.
4
Run and review — Execute scans individually or chain them with Pentest Robots. Results aggregate in the dashboard with severity ratings and evidence.
5
Generate report — Export findings as a customizable DOCX report for client delivery or internal review.
When to use Pentest-Tools.com
The platform is a good fit for pentest consultants who want cloud-hosted tools without local setup, teams that need a unified interface across recon, scanning, and exploitation phases, and organizations that want professional DOCX reports without manual formatting.
It is less suitable if you need deep control over individual tool configurations, want to run everything on your own infrastructure, or need specialized testing (API security, mobile) beyond what the bundled tools cover.
For dedicated web application security testing, a focused DAST tool like Invicti or Acunetix will likely go deeper on application-level vulnerabilities. Pentest-Tools.com trades depth for breadth. If you only need web vulnerability scanning, check our free DAST tools guide or consider Nikto for lightweight server-level checks.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Pentest-Tools.com?
Pentest-Tools.com is a cloud-based penetration testing platform that bundles 20+ security tools into one interface. It covers reconnaissance (subdomain discovery, port scanning via Nmap), web vulnerability scanning (SQLi, XSS), CMS scanning (WordPress via WPScan, Drupal, Joomla), network scanning (OpenVAS), and exploitation (SQLMap, Sniper auto-exploiter).
Is Pentest-Tools.com free?
Some tools offer limited free usage for basic scans. Full scanning capabilities, automation features (Pentest Robots), and advanced reporting require a paid subscription.
What scanners does Pentest-Tools.com integrate?
The platform integrates Nmap for port scanning, OpenVAS for network vulnerabilities, WPScan for WordPress, SQLMap for SQL injection exploitation, and OWASP ZAP for XSS scanning. It also includes custom-built tools for subdomain discovery, SSL/TLS testing, and DNS analysis.
What are Pentest Robots?
Pentest Robots are automated workflows that chain multiple tools together. Instead of running recon, scanning, and exploitation manually one at a time, a Robot runs the full sequence automatically and compiles results into a single report.
How does Pentest-Tools.com compare to running tools locally?
The main advantage is convenience. You get Nmap, OpenVAS, WPScan, SQLMap, and other tools without installing anything. Scans run from Pentest-Tools.com cloud infrastructure. The tradeoff is less control over tool configuration compared to running them locally.
