Why Choose This Project

Penetration testing generates large volumes of data, often in raw, unstructured formats. Manually converting these results into readable, professional reports is time-consuming and error-prone. This project automates the process of converting pentest results from scanners and tools into well-structured PDF reports, making it easier for security teams, auditors, and management to review vulnerabilities and take action promptly.

What You Get

A web-based platform that takes raw pentest output files (e.g., from Nessus, OpenVAS, or Nmap), parses and categorizes the results, and generates comprehensive PDF reports. Reports include vulnerability details, risk levels, affected systems, remediation suggestions, and visual charts summarizing findings.

Key Features

Technology Stack

Working Flow

1. User Login – Secure authentication for authorized pentesters and admins.

2. Upload Pentest Results – User uploads raw output files from various pentest tools.

3. Result Parsing – System reads the file, extracts vulnerabilities, affected hosts, CVE IDs, and severity levels.

4. Categorization & Risk Scoring – Vulnerabilities are categorized by type and assigned a risk score.

5. Report Generation – Structured PDF report is generated with tables, charts, and remediation suggestions.

6. Dashboard Visualization – Overview of vulnerability trends, top risks, and affected systems.

7. Export & Sharing – PDF reports can be downloaded or emailed securely to stakeholders.

8. Audit Logging – All uploads, parsing events, and generated reports are logged for accountability.
