The project
PentestKit is a lightweight penetration-testing toolkit built for educational and explicitly authorised use. It brings together four focused tools for understanding TCP services, web paths, network hosts, and HTTP responses.
What I built
Each tool has a narrow, understandable purpose. Ethical-use constraints are part of the project documentation, not an afterthought.
DirFinder
Directory discovery using a brute-force approach in authorised test environments.
HostMapper
Host discovery within an authorised subnet.
HeaderGrabber
HTTP header inspection for understanding a server’s response.
Technical focus
The toolkit connects Python command-line development with networking, TCP, and HTTP concepts. The project is presented here as engineering and documentation work; the portfolio does not expose a network scanner or accept scanning targets.

Conceptual component map
Authorisation comes first. Only use security tools on systems you own or have explicit permission to assess. The interactive tool guide below is documentation only and sends no network requests.
