Checklists

We’re aiming to release a number of checklists with v0.3 release. Please send the request here to join in private-repo to collaborate with other researchers on its development. In meantime, you can download the below checklists to import in your libraries:

• OWASP-Testing-Checklist from @Ice3man543: Download (Inspired by @tanprathan work)

You can also download the code to generate this checklist whenever any updates are available in the original repository.

• OSCP Methodology from @InitRoot: The checklist aim to assist OSCP students with a baseline methodology for the labs and exam environments. (Coming Soon)

Report

🐛 Reporting a bug?

This is very early days of this project, therefore unexpected bugs, UI glitches and data-corruptions related issues may occur. I’d personally and strongly recommend to keep taking backups daily to not to loose any data if something bad happens.

Before reporting a bug or glitch, please confirm if it is not previously reported. Give most possible information about the issue: reproduction steps, OS/environments specifics and any possible suggestions to fix it.

You can use this link to create and file an issue.

🚨 Reporting a security vulnerability?

Swiftness project was initially started to combat my day-to-day personal issues related to managing findings and checklist and was never built in mind for cross-platform support. However, to fulfill the gap for other OS, I decided to switch the project to ElectronJS. With the better flexibility, it came with a drawback of having too much dependencies on 3rd party libraries, ultimately, more concerns related to its security.

What measures we’ve been taking:

Where to report?

References related to Electron security

Please refer to the below guide on understanding the basics and security of Electron:

Also check the package.json to see this project dependencies.

Upcomings

We aim to release a major new update every 3 months, hoping to short this cycle however, testing and fixing the glitches for all the platforms take a bit time. Moreover, this project is maintained on weekends so you may see some slow replies on emails or issues.

• Dark Theme
• Support for Dropbox and Google Drive Sync
• Performance Refactors
• Reporting tools inspired by Frans Rosen (@fransr): https://github.com/fransr/template-generator
• Better Text Editor: Enhanced Table features, export options, highlighting customisations, etc
