This comes from a Greek startup called Ecsypno.

Codename SCNR is a DAST solution which, when coupled with the Introspector server-side middleware and the OpenAI platform for data analysis, can provide effective and actionable vulnerability patching.

This leads to automation from scanning to fixing.

I'm addition to code patches, thanks to the unparalleled context gathered by Codename SCNR and the AI, automated issue dissection, exploitation guidance, remediation guidance and more are possible, allowing professionals to easily assess the entire breadth of each vulnerability while mitigating it.

Submission + - Peplum: F/OSS super-computing at Home with Ruby Infrastructure (ecsypno.com)

It's been very busy here at Ecsypno skunkworks these last few days when it comes to research and development into distributed computing systems.

Armed with Cuboid, Qmap was built, which tackled the handling of nmap in a distributed environment, with great results. Afterwards, an iterative clean-up process led to a template of sorts, for scheduling most applications in such environments.

With that, Peplum was born, which allows for OS applications, Ruby code and C/C++/Rust code (via Ruby extensions) to be distributed across machines and tackle the processing of neatly grouped objects.

In essence, Peplum:

Is a distributed computing solution backed by Cuboid.
Its basic function is to distribute workloads and deliver payloads across multiple machines and thus parallelize otherwise time consuming tasks.
Allows you to combine several machines and built a cluster/supercomputer of sorts with great ease.

After that was dealt with, it was time to port Qmap over to Peplum for easier long-term maintenance, thus renamed Peplum::Nmap.

So that was quite the weekend!

We have high hopes for Peplum as it basically means easy, simple and joyful cloud/clustering/super-computing at home, on-premise, anywhere really. Along with the capability to turn a lot of security oriented apps into super versions of themselves, it is quite the infrastructure.
