Fortra has 3 tools for pen-testers and red-teams. In this bolg I quickly go through what each tool does and where it fits within the market. I then provide links to elsewhere on this site for more detailed information.
If you want all 3 products together, then this is known by Fortra as their Advanced Red Team Bundle.
Core Impact
This tool is targeted at pen-testers and is an exploitation framework. This competes in a similar product category to Metasploit.
It is a workbench with a reporting engine, complete audit trail, and exploits that massively speed up the work of a pen-tester. It includes network-level exploits, phishing attacks, and web application exploits, plus other tools like ransomware simulation.

Core Impact and Cobalt Strike Together
The Core Impact tool is integrated with Cobalt Strike. You will find some demos of this here: https://s4applications.uk/fortra/core-impact-with-cobalt-strike/
This is known by Fortra as their Offensive Security Advanced Bundle.
Cobalt Strike
This is the industry-leading Command and Control (c2) infrastructure. This is used by most red teams (plus most malware) because of its power and EDR evasion technology.

Cobalt Strike and Outflank Together
The Cobalt Strike and OST tools are also integrated together. I don’t have a demo yet, but I hope to soon.
This is known by Fortra as their Red Team Bundle.
Outflank Security Tooling (OST)
OST is a set of 20+ tools that perform things that red team members want to do. These range from a Sharpfuscator (hides C# executables from AV/ERD), to Hidden Desktop (an OPSEC safe implementation of hidden Virtual Network Computing), to Stego Loader (embeds a payload in a picture file) and so on.
Several of the individual tools are discussed, with demos on this page: https://s4applications.uk/fortra/outflank-security-tooling-ost/
The full set of tools is covered in the PDF which is available on the “OST Tech Overview Document” button on this page: https://s4applications.uk/fortra/outflank-security-tooling-ost/#tech-overview.
