OWASP Amass Project

In-depth DNS Enumeration, Attack Surface Mapping and External Asset Discovery!

The OWASP Amass Project has developed a tool to help information security professionals perform network mapping of attack surfaces and perform external asset discovery using open source information gathering and active reconnaissance techniques.

Description

The OWASP Amass project is focused on DNS enumeration and network infrastructure mapping techniques. These techniques include: obtaining subdomain names by scraping web pages, accessing web APIs, querying public databases, recursive brute forcing, crawling web archives, permuting/altering DNS names, reverse DNS sweeping, and querying ASNs and netblocks associated with IP addresses. The information collected during an enumeration is used to build a graph database that maps an organization's presence on the Internet.

When the enumeration is complete, an Amass tool is capable of converting the results into several different formats accepted by popular network graph visualization engines. This aids analysts and infosec experts attempting to quickly identify network layout and external networks being utilized by the target organization.

The software is implemented in the Go programming language, and is portable across popular operating systems such as Windows, Linux, MacOS, FreeBSD, etc. The command-line tools can be obtained via several mechanisms described on the installation page, such as through a Go development environment, the release binaries, the Snap package manager for Linux systems and various packages maintained by others.

How can I participate in the project?

All you have to do is make the Project Leader aware of your available time to contribute to the project. It is also important to let the leader know how you would like to contribute and pitch in to help the project meet its goals and milestones. There are many different ways you can contribute to an OWASP Project, but communication with the leader is key.

If I am not a programmer can I participate in the project?

Yes, you can certainly participate in the project if you are not a programmer. The project needs different skills and expertise at different times during its development. Currently, we are looking for researchers, programmers, writers, and graphic designers. See the Road Map and Getting Involved tab for more details.

Roadmap

As of January, 2019, the highest priorities for the next 6 months are:

For version 3.0.0, update the user interfaces (UI) available
Feature enhancement: Allow Amass to connect to proxies
Feature enhancement: Inform users of what Amass will do once an enumeration is executed
Feature enhancement: Clean lists of DNS resolvers provided by users
Continue to update data sources that provide DNS names
Implement documentation regarding Amass architecture and the enumeration process
Develop slides and videos to serve as demonstration material

Getting Involved

There are many ways you can support the OWASP Amass project. Below are some of the roles that definitely need additional support:

Coding

We could implement some of the later items on the roadmap sooner if some Go network programmers wanted to join the project.

Testing

Amass leverages concurrency and produces quite a bit of network traffic, which can always use additional testing. Anyone interested in stressing the software and helping to improve its quality is welcome.

Writing

The project could currently use technical writers to join the team in order to capture how the software works.

 ==OWASP Amass Project==
-In-depth DNS enumeration and network infrastructure mapping written in Go!
-The OWASP Amass project was originally created when the project lead was showing organizations what they look like on the Internet, and he noticed that the tools available were returning incomplete results relative to what could be discovered manually. With the identification of this gap in capabilities for security experts, the Amass project was born.

The information collected during an enumeration is used to build a network map of an organization's presence on the Internet.
-Amass reaches out to over 30 passive data sources to learn about the DNS namespace of a target domain. By default, Amass validates all the names by performing DNS queries across a pool of resolver servers, which spreads out the activity generated by the enumeration. For all IP addresses collected during this process, Amass queries for associated netblocks and ASNs. As additional data sources become available to provide visibility of the Internet, implementations can quickly be developed within Amass due to the simple interfaces worked into the design.

-If users wish to maintain the information collected by the Amass software, data handlers interface with storage systems, such as [https://neo4j.com/ Neo4j]. Additional handlers can easily be implemented in order to support other databases or even custom solutions.

-The project has software deliverables that are implemented in the Go programming language. These deliverables include a command-line tool, a local transform for [https://www.paterva.com/web7/buy/maltego-clients.php Maltego], and a Go package that can be imported into other software projects.

-The About 'tab' on that page is done with a MediaWiki template.  If you log into the wiki page for your project and click the "Edit" button/link/tab in the top-right between 'Read' and 'View History', you'll see the edit page for the main body of your project page.
-The Project About template takes 'input' that are key/value pairs where you'll need to edit the stuff after the equals (=) like:
-project_name =Place your project name here.
