Network Security Toolkit (NST) is a bootable ISO image (Live USB Flash Drive) based on Fedora 42 providing easy access to best-of-breed Open Source Network Security Applications and should run on most x86_64 systems. The main intent of developing this toolkit was to provide the security professional and network administrator with a comprehensive set of Open Source Network Security Tools. The majority of tools published in the article: Top 125 Security Tools by INSECURE.ORG are available in the toolkit. An advanced Web User Interface (WUI) is provided for system/network administration, navigation, automation, network monitoring, host geolocation, network analysis and configuration of many network and security applications found within the NST distribution. In the virtual world, NST can be used as a network security analysis, validation and monitoring tool on enterprise virtual servers hosting virtual machines.

System Configuration Collector collects and classifies most of your UNIX/Linux/BSD configuration data in flat files called snapshots. This unique concept allows changes in snapshots of consecutive runs to be detected. These changes are added to a logbook that is helpful for administrators during troubleshooting and for auditors during audits. Snapshot and logbook are also available in HTML format. All data can be send to an SCC server where a web interface provides access to summaries and supports comparing snapshots of different servers and searching of all data. A WMI based Windows client is also available.
