The CRAM-MD5 protocol involves a single challenge and response cycle, and is initiated by the server: Challenge: The server sends a base64-encoded string to the client.. Before encoding, it could be any random string, but the standard that currently defines CRAM-MD5 says that it is in the format of a Message-ID email header value (including angle brackets) and includes an arbitrary string of ...
The main features (query tools) were: Zone Transfer – ask a DNS server for all it knows about a domain; SMTP Relay Check – check whether a mail server allows third party relaying; Scan Addresses – scan a range of IP addresses looking for open ports; Crawl website – search a website, looking for email addresses, offsite links, etc.
Email accounts can often contain useful evidence; but email headers are easily faked and, so, network forensics may be used to prove the exact origin of incriminating material. Network forensics can also be used in order to find out who is using a particular computer [ 12 ] by extracting user account information from the network traffic.
The Sender: header is available to indicate that an email was sent on behalf of another party, but DMARC only checks policy for the From domain and ignores the Sender domain. [ note 2 ] Both ADSP and DMARC [ 4 ] reject using the Sender field on the non-technical basis that many user agents do not display this to the recipient.
Burp Suite is a proprietary software tool for security assessment and penetration testing of web applications. [2] [3] It was initially developed in 2003-2006 by Dafydd Stuttard [4] to automate his own security testing needs, after realizing the capabilities of automatable web tools like Selenium. [5]
For email uses, a textual encoding of a hashcash stamp is added to the header of an email to prove the sender has expended a modest amount of CPU time calculating the stamp prior to sending the email. In other words, as the sender has taken a certain amount of time to generate the stamp and send the email, it is unlikely that they are a spammer.

Snare (sometimes also written as SNARE, an acronym for System iNtrusion Analysis and Reporting Environment) is a collection of software tools that collect audit log data from a variety of operating systems and applications to facilitate centralised log analysis.
