Security & Monitoring Scripts for Real-World IT Environments
Practical security and monitoring scripts designed by experts to validate, automate, and support real-world IT, network, and security operations.
Why Security Scripts
Modern IT environments are complex, dynamic, and constantly changing.
While enterprise tools provide powerful capabilities, real operational insight often comes from small, well-designed scripts that validate assumptions, expose blind spots, and support decision-making.
This section contains expert-designed scripts and logic patterns used to support monitoring, security, and operational workflows in real environments.
These scripts are not meant to replace enterprise tools — they complement them.
Monitoring & Visibility
Scripts designed to validate latency, availability, and network behavior before or alongside monitoring platforms.
Data Protection & User Activity
Logic patterns that help identify risky behavior, endpoint activity, and data movement scenarios.
IT Operations & Access Control
Scripts focused on user sessions, service health, and operational visibility across IT environments.
Vulnerability & Patch Management
Validation scripts to support asset discovery, patch readiness, and vulnerability assessment workflows.

Scripts provide insight – expertise turns insight into results
If you need help adapting or operationalizing these scripts within enterprise tools, expert guidance can significantly reduce risk.Security Scripts
A collection of security-related Python and Bash shell scripts, mainly revolving around testing hosts for security vulnerabilities. For the shell scripts, no fancy programming framework is required; all that is needed is a Bash shell.
Note that it is highly recommended to use analyze_hosts.py it as it is the most recent version. No new features will be added to the Bash version analyze_hosts.sh.
analyze_hosts is also available as a Docker image, including the open source scanners droopescan, nmap, Nikto and testssl.sh. Build it yourself using the supplied Dockerfile, or grab the image from Docker Hub
docker run --rm gofwd/analyze_hostsYou can also run the included tools that way; just override the entrypoint. As an example, run testssl.sh:
docker run --rm --entrypoint 'testssl.sh' gofwd/analyze_hosts
