Recon-ng
Web Recon for Kali Linux
Recon-ng is a powerful, open-source web reconnaissance framework written in Python, designed for open-source intelligence (OSINT) gathering and web-based information collection. Pre-installed on Kali Linux (version 5.1.2 in the latest releases), it features a modular architecture with a Metasploit-like interface, offering independent modules, database interaction, and interactive help for efficient reconnaissance. Recon-ng supports tasks like domain enumeration, subdomain discovery, vulnerability scanning, and contact harvesting, with modules for GeoIP lookup, DNS lookup, and Shodan integration. Its marketplace allows users to install additional modules. Ideal for ethical hackers, penetration testers, and cybersecurity professionals, Recon-ng streamlines network footprinting and vulnerability assessment, storing data in workspace databases for organized analysis. It’s maintained by Tim Tomes and hosted on GitHub, with a vibrant community for support.
