1
Initial recon in penetration testing engagements2
CTF competitions and hackthebox machines3
Comprehensive service enumeration with minimal manual effort4
When you need Nmap, gobuster, nikto, and other tools coordinated5
Time-constrained assessments requiring thorough coverageNotes & Tips
1
Orchestrates multiple tools automatically2
Runs Nmap, Nikto, Gobuster, and other scanners in parallel3
Results are organized in a clean directory structure4
Can be resource-intensive on large target listsCommon Errors & Solutions
Missing dependencies
Install required tools: pip install -r requirements.txt
Permission errors
Some scans require root/sudo access for SYN scans
