Throughout this chapter, we will look at the main modules that allow us to extract information that the servers expose in a public way. With the tools we have discussed, we can get information that may be useful for later phases of our pentesting or audit process. We will see tools such as Shodan and Banner Grabbing, getting information for DNS servers with the DNSPython module, and Fuzzing processing with the pywebfuzz module.
The following topics will be covered in this chapter:
- Introduction to gathering information
