These include tools such as Splunk and Argus, which support log analysis, network visibility, and threat detection. Tools used in security testing and analysis vary by purpose. For example, Wireshark is a network protocol analyzer, Kali Linux is a penetration-testing distribution, and Invicti (formerly Netsparker) is a web application security scanner. Security platforms from vendors (e.g., specific Palo Alto Networks products and Cisco XDR) may also be used, depending on the organization\u2019s stack.
