Description-en: Web Reconnaissance framework written in Python
Recon-ng is a full-featured Web Reconnaissance framework written in Python.
Complete with independent modules, database interaction, built in convenience
functions, interactive help, and command completion, Recon-ng provides a
powerful environment in which open source web-based reconnaissance can be
conducted quickly and thoroughly.
.
Recon-ng has a look and feel similar to the Metasploit Framework, reducing the
learning curve for leveraging the framework. However, it is quite different.
Recon-ng is not intended to compete with existing frameworks, as it is designed
exclusively for web-based open source reconnaissance. If you want to exploit,
use the Metasploit Framework. If you want to Social Engineer, use the Social
Engineer Toolkit.
