The increasing sophistication of cyber threats necessitates a proactive approach to cybersecurity, with ethical hacking and penetration testing serving as foundational pillars of an effective defense strategy. However, the practical execution of a security assessment involves a fragmented workflow, often requiring practitioners to leverage numerous disparate command-line tools for reconnaissance, scanning, exploitation, and reporting. This paper presents a comprehensive review of EthiHack Pro v2.0, a hypothetical integrated software suite designed to address these challenges. The tool consolidates the entire penetration testing lifecycle into a single, GUI-driven platform built on Python and a robust ecosystem of security-focused libraries. We analyze its modular architecture, the technological stack underpinning its capabilities, and its structured workflow, which guides users from initial information gathering to final vulnerability exploitation. A significant innovation of the platform is its experimental AI-powered reporting module, which leverages generative AI to automate the creation of detailed, multi-audience security reports. This review examines the tool's design, functionality, and potential to streamline security assessments, making advanced testing methodologies more accessible and efficient for cybersecurity professionals.
