Why I Made This Project

Everyone who is into tech has at least once thought about being a hacker or do hacking stuff for fun. I mean hacking feels very cool power that we can have so just to get a bit of taste of cyber security/hacking I tried to make a very simple OSINT tool using python.

What Even Is This Project

This project is a simple small osint tool which uses python as core programming language. Using this tool I can find people with "xyz" username on few websites like github, snapchat few more. I can also use this tool to find ip address of websites, details about their hosting and country,state they are bring hosted from.

From a hackers perspective this is not really that usefull tool as it only does very basic stuff that you can use a search engine insted of this but this can be very usefull if you want to use this tool as foundation to make your own osint tool. As I have a feature of json file in this tool so you can simply find api and enter more websites to find info from and this might become a very usefull tool.

Built With
