Intro to O2 Plartform

(here is an intro to the O2 Platform email that I wrote, which was bouncing of the recipient email's server due to '554 rejected due to spam URL in content')

The O2 Platform is all about automating and scripting. It's a platform/framework which means that it helps to have a 'hard question' to start with.

Here are a good place to start with the O2 Platform:

• Best version to download blog.diniscruz.com/2014/08/o2-platform-55-rc1-please-give-it-test.html (see links for documentation)
• Presentation www.slideshare.net/DinisCruz/owasp-o2-platform-november-2010
• Tons of videos: blog.diniscruz.com/2012/04/39-o2-platform-videos-with-12k-youtube.html

The O2 Platform come out from OunceLabs (now AppScan Source) where I was working as a researcher and had the task to process and visualise thousands of Static Analysis results (i.e. traces). Eventually it evolved into a toolkit to quickly develop security tools and security tests (to be integrated into an CI pipeline)

From a pentest/security-review, the idea is to deliver findings (and knowledge) as scripts/automation (instead of an PDF)

I guess the best place to start is if you can expand on your scripting needs, that way I can reply with info on how O2 can help to solve it
