Amass - In-Depth Dns Enumeration As Well As Network Mapping


The OWASP Amass tool suite obtains subdomain names past times scraping information sources, recursive animate beingness forcing, crawling spider web archives, permuting/altering names as well as contrary DNS sweeping. Additionally, Amass uses the IP addresses obtained during resolution to notice associated netblocks as well as ASNs. All the information is as well as hence used to range maps of the target networks.

  • DNS: Basic enumeration, Brute forcing (upon request), Reverse DNS sweeping, Subdomain cite alterations/permutations, Zone transfers (upon request)
  • Scraping: Ask, Baidu, Bing, CommonCrawl, DNSDB, DNSDumpster, DNSTable, Dogpile, Exalead, FindSubdomains, Google, IPv4Info, Netcraft, PTRArchive, Riddler, SiteDossier, ThreatCrowd, VirusTotal, Yahoo
  • Certificates: Active pulls (upon request), Censys, CertDB, CertSpotter, Crtsh, Entrust
  • APIs: BinaryEdge, BufferOver, CIRCL, HackerTarget, PassiveTotal, Robtex, SecurityTrails, Shodan, Twitter, Umbrella, URLScan
  • Web Archives: ArchiveIt, ArchiveToday, Arquivo, LoCArchive, OpenUKArchive, UKGovArchive, Wayback
