Description : Medusa is a speedy, massively parallel, modular,
: login brute-forcer for network services.
: Some of the key features of Medusa are:
:
: * Thread-based parallel testing. Brute-force
: testing can be performed against multiple hosts,
: users or passwords concurrently.
: * Flexible user input. Target information
: (host/user/password) can be specified in a variety of ways.
: For example, each item can be either a single
: entry or a file containing multiple entries.
: Additionally, a combination file format allows
: the user to refine their target listing.
: * Modular design. Each service module exists
: as an independent .mod file.
: This means that no modifications are necessary
: to the core application in order to extend
: the supported list of services for brute-forcing.
