Dradis Community Edition (CE)

Dradis Community Edition (CE) is an open-source security framework designed for penetration testing teams to manage security projects, collaborate on findings, and generate reports. The platform operates as a cross-platform web application released under GPLv2 license. The tool centralizes security project information by combining output from multiple security scanning tools, manual findings, and notes into a unified workspace. Users can import data from various security tools and consolidate results for analysis and reporting. Dradis CE provides report generation capabilities that allow teams to create consistent documentation in Word and Excel formats. The reporting functionality is designed to reduce the time required to produce pentest reports compared to manual writing. The platform includes collaboration features that enable team members to track project progress, split tasks, and comment on findings. A project summary view displays issues, team information, and methodology progress to keep team members aligned. The framework supports extensibility through integrations with security scanning tools. Users can import results from vulnerability scanners, web application testing tools, and network mapping utilities. The platform also provides an API and scripting capabilities for custom integrations. Dradis CE includes methodology tracking features to help teams follow structured testing approaches. The platform maintains project details in a centralized location accessible to all team members working on an engagement. The tool has been in development for 17 years with an active community forum and Slack channel. The source code is available on GitHub with ongoing daily development.
