Description : active network reconnaissance security tool
Firewalk is an active reconnaissance network security tool that attempts
to determine what layer 4 protocols a given IP forwarding device will
pass.
This package is relevant in network security assessments. It works in a
similar way to traceroute, but with extended functionality that helps in
assessing the configuration of package filtering devices.
I plan to maintain this package inside the Debian Security Tools
Packaging Team (pkg-security), and I will need a sponsor for my package.
