Python is perhaps the most used programming language when it comes to pen testing. This is partly because there is an enormous amount of external python libraries available. These libraries make life that much easier for the pentester. Another bonus of using Python is its simplicity. While most programming languages require extensive research in order to catch up with the basics, that’s not the case with Python. It’s a pretty intuitive and well-designed language, allowing you to quickly catch up with some more complex ideas and implementations of it.
