surfacemap 2.2.0

LLM-driven attack surface discovery — find every asset from just a company name

SurfaceMap

LLM-driven attack surface discovery by BreachLine Labs

Find every external asset from just a company name. SurfaceMap combines 48+ OSINT data sources, DNS enumeration, HTTP probing, port scanning, vulnerability scanning (Nuclei), web crawling, screenshot capture, and LLM intelligence to build a complete map of an organization's attack surface.

Quick Start

# Install
pip install surfacemap[all]

# Set your LLM API key (optional but recommended)
surfacemap set-key GEMINI_API_KEY your-key-here

# Discover everything about a target
surfacemap discover facebook.com --json --mindmap

# Passive only (faster, no active probing)
surfacemap discover example.com --passive-only --json

# With enrichment APIs (VirusTotal, Shodan, GitHub)
surfacemap discover target.com --enrich --json --mindmap

Installation

# Core (CLI + discovery)
pip install surfacemap

# With all extras (API server, LLM, notifications)
pip install surfacemap[all]

# From source
git clone https://github.com/BreachLine/surfacemap.git
cd surfacemap
pip install -e ".[all]"
