Achilles, tool to assist auditing of web sites  |  (2000/11/16 12:00)

Auditing web code can be a time consuming endeavour. There are a lot of automated tools for testing C code, but few aimed specifically at the various web based scripting languages. Achillies serves as a proxy that will allow you to change input fields on the fly. No more saving web pages, editing them to adjust input lengths. Re-loading.. bleh.. Achilles is available at Digizen

IP Stack testing tools  |  (2000/11/16 12:00)

Network stacks need to be tested with hostile input to determine if they're really up to the rigors of the big bad internet. In order to do this testing, you need automatic packet generation tools. These tools are also useful if you have any code that deals with raw ip packets, sniffers for example.
ISIC (IP Stack Integrity Checker) is available Here
IPTest is a part of Darren Reed's ipfilter package which is available Here
