I'm just going to guess C) Nmap and hope the instructor has a sense of humor. What, you didn't want me to use Bonzi Buddy for this?

Metasploit framework, for sure. It's like the Swiss Army knife of hacking tools. You can do everything from scanning to exploitation with it.

D) Tayna the Ripper is a password cracking tool, not an exploit tool. I'm confident B) Metasploit framework is the correct answer here.

Nessus and Nmap are more for scanning and John the Ripper is for password cracking.

I'm torn between B and C. Nmap is a powerful network scanning tool, so it could be used for reconnaissance before an attack. But Metasploit is the go-to for penetration testing, so I'll have to go with B.

I'm not sure, but I think Nessus also has some exploit capabilities. Maybe A) Nessus could be the answer too.
