== DESCRIPTION:

Ronin Scanners is a Ruby library for Ronin that provides Ruby interfaces to
various third-party security scanners.

Ronin is a Ruby platform designed for information security and data
exploration tasks. Ronin allows for the rapid development and distribution
of code over many of the common Source-Code-Management (SCM) systems.

=== Free

All source code within Ronin is licensed under the GPL-2, therefore no user
will ever have to pay for Ronin or updates to Ronin. Not only is the
source code free, the Ronin project will not sell enterprise grade security
snake-oil solutions, give private training classes or later turn Ronin into
commercial software.

=== Modular

Ronin was not designed as one monolithic framework but instead as a
collection of libraries which can be individually installed. This allows
users to pick and choose what functionality they want in Ronin.

=== Decentralized

Ronin does not have a central repository of exploits and payloads which
all developers contribute to. Instead Ronin has Overlays, repositories of
code that can be hosted on any CVS/SVN/Git/Rsync server. Users can then use
Ronin to quickly install or update Overlays. This allows developers and
users to form their own communities, independent of the main developers
of Ronin.

== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

* Provides a Rubyful interface to Nmap.
* Allows for recording of Nmap scan results using ScanDB.

== REQUIREMENTS:

* Scandb
