As a pen-tester, you just need to find one issue with the technology
stack, as opposed to being an expert.

Hi Group,

When a tester start the assessment on his client's network, he
encounter various technologies, services, protocols, applications
built on various technologies(Java, asp, iis, apache, tomcat, ERP,SAP)
which he needs to attack. Obviously it may not be possible for him to
be a expert or atleast have knowledge on these. In this scenerio what
approach to follow in the limited time window mutually agreed by
client&tester? Obviously oneway is to perform trail&error on each and
every exploit for that technology available in google.

Thnx,
Sekhar
