Spiderfoot – Open Source Intelligence Automation Tool
SpiderFoot is an open source intelligence automation tool. Its goal is to automate the process of gathering intelligence about a given target.
Purpose
There are three main areas where SpiderFoot can be useful:
- If you are a pen-tester, SpiderFoot will automate the reconnaisance stage of the test, giving you a rich set of data to help you pin-point areas of focus for the test.
- Understand what your network/organisation is openly exposing to the outside world. Such information in the wrong hands could be a significant risk.
- SpiderFoot can also be used to gather threat intelligence about suspected malicious IPs you might be seeing in your logs or have obtained via threat intelligence data feeds.
Features
- Utilises a shedload of data sources; over 40 so far and counting, including SHODAN, RIPE, Whois, PasteBin, Google, SANS and more.
- Designed for maximum data extraction; every piece of data is passed on to modules that may be interested, so that they can extract valuable information. No piece of discovered data is saved from analysis.
- Runs on Linux and Windows. And fully open-source so you can fork it on GitHub and do whatever you want with it.
- Visualisations. Built-in JavaScript-based visualisations or export to GEXF/CSV for use in other tools, like Gephi for instance.
- Web-based UI. No cumbersome CLI or Java to mess with. Easy to use, easy to navigate. Take a look through the gallery for screenshots.
- Highly configurable. Almost every module is configurable so you can define the level of intrusiveness and functionality.
- Modular. Each major piece of functionality is a module, written in Python. Feel free to write your own and submit them to be incorporated!
- SQLite back-end. All scan results are stored in a local SQLite database, so you can play with your data to your heart’s content.
- Simultaneous scans. Each footprint scan runs as its own thread, so you can perform footprinting of many different targets simultaneously.
- So much more.. check out the documentation for more information.
Data Sources
This is an ever-growing list of data sources SpiderFoot uses to gather intelligence about your target. A few require API keys but they are freely available.
