Core Methodologies

1. Passive Reconnaissance (OSINT)

Domain Information:

# WHOIS lookup
whois domain.com

# DNS records
dig domain.com ANY
dig domain.com MX
dig domain.com TXT
dig domain.com NS

# Historical DNS data
# Use: SecurityTrails, DNSdumpster, Shodan

Subdomain Enumeration (Passive):

# Certificate transparency logs
curl -s "https://crt.sh/?q=%25.domain.com&output=json" | jq -r '.[].name_value' | sort -u

# Sublist3r
python3 sublist3r.py -d domain.com

# Amass (passive)
amass enum -passive -d domain.com

# assetfinder
assetfinder --subs-only domain.com

# subfinder
subfinder -d domain.com -silent

Email Harvesting:

# theHarvester
theHarvester -d domain.com -b all

# hunter.io (web interface or API)
# phonebook.cz
# clearbit connect

Search Engine Recon:

# Google Dorks
site:domain.com filetype:pdf
site:domain.com inurl:admin
site:domain.com intitle:"index of"
site:domain.com ext:sql | ext:txt | ext:log

# GitHub Dorks
"domain.com" password
"domain.com" api_key
"domain.com" secret
org:company password
org:company api

Shodan/Censys:

# Shodan CLI
shodan search "hostname:domain.com"
shodan search "org:Company Name"
shodan search "ssl:domain.com"

# Censys
# Use web interface or API
# Search for: domain.com or company infrastructure

Social Media OSINT:

# LinkedIn enumeration
# Company employees, job titles, technologies used

# Twitter
# Company accounts, employee accounts, technology mentions

# Tools:
# - linkedin2username (generate username lists)
# - sherlock (find usernames across platforms)

2. Active Reconnaissance

Subdomain Enumeration (Active):

# gobuster
gobuster dns -d domain.com -w /usr/share/seclists/Discovery/DNS/subdomains-top1million-20000.txt

# ffuf
ffuf -u http://FUZZ.domain.com -w subdomains.txt -mc 200,301,302

# dnsrecon
dnsrecon -d domain.com -t brt -D subdomains.txt

# amass (active)
amass enum -active -d domain.com -brute

DNS Zone Transfer:

# dig
dig axfr @ns1.domain.com domain.com

# host
host -l domain.com ns1.domain.com

# fierce
fierce --domain domain.com

Port Scanning:

# Nmap - quick scan

# Nmap - full port scan
nmap -p- -T4 -oA nmap_full target.com
nmap -p- -sV -sC -A target.com -oA nmap_detailed

# Nmap - UDP scan
sudo nmap -sU --top-ports 1000 target.com

# Nmap - scan entire network
nmap -sn 10.10.10.0/24  # Ping sweep
nmap -p- 10.10.10.0/24  # Port scan subnet

# masscan (very fast)
sudo masscan -p1-65535 10.10.10.10 --rate=1000

# rustscan (fast with nmap integration)
rustscan -a target.com -- -sC -sV

# Extract metadata from documents

9. Attack Surface Mapping

Comprehensive Enumeration:

# Combination approach
1. Passive subdomain enum
2. Active subdomain bruteforce
3. Port scan all discovered hosts
4. Service enumeration
5. Web content discovery
6. Vulnerability scanning
7. Credential gathering

Automation Frameworks:

# Amass + Nmap + Nuclei pipeline
amass enum -passive -d target.com -o subdomains.txt
cat subdomains.txt | while read host; do nmap -sC -sV $host -oA nmap_$host; done
nuclei -l subdomains.txt -t ~/nuclei-templates/

# Recon-ng
recon-ng
workspaces create target
modules load recon/domains-hosts/hackertarget
modules load recon/hosts-ports/shodan

10. Reporting and Documentation

Organize Findings:

# Create project structure
mkdir -p target/{nmap,subdomains,web,creds,screenshots}

# Document everything
# - IP ranges
# - Subdomains found
# - Open ports/services
# - Credentials found
# - Vulnerabilities identified
# - Technologies detected

When to Use This Skill

Activate this skill when the user asks to:

• Perform reconnaissance on a target
• Enumerate subdomains
• Discover attack surface
• Find public exposures
• Gather OSINT information
• Map network infrastructure
• Identify technologies in use
• Help with initial access techniques

Always ensure proper authorization before performing any reconnaissance activities.
