This project is intended for educational purposes and authorized penetration testing only.
Do not use this tool against systems or networks without explicit permission.
This project automates reconnaissance tasks using Bash shell scripting. Bash was chosen because it allows for fast experimentation with command-line tools and helps build a strong foundation in scripting. This project serves as a stepping stone to more advanced programming languages, such as Python, while demonstrating practical automation of network and web enumeration workflows. This is also my personal project to demonstrate real-world coding and penetration-testing skills for further oppurtunities in education and careers.
This script automates a reconnaissance pipeline by chaining multiple tools and processes:
- Port and service discovery
- Web directory enumeration
- HTTP content retrieval
- Pattern matching and data extraction
It processes discovered endpoints and extracts potential sensitive data patterns using automated filtering techniques.
- Nmap (network scanning)
- Gobuster (directory enumeration)
- curl (HTTP requests)
- grep (pattern matching)
- chmod +x script_name.sh
- echo "IP_ADRRESS" > ip.txt (This uses IP addresses from a txt file for personal convienence.)
- ./httpnmap_fast.sh
