MOVING TO PYTHON 3 SOON AND IMPLEMENTING UPDATES, SIT TIGHT

Skiptracer - OSINT scraping framework

python version licence

screen

Initial attack vectors for recon usually involve utilizing pay-for-data/API (Recon-NG), or paying to utilize transforms (Maltego) to get data mining results. Skiptracer utilizes some basic python webscraping (BeautifulSoup) of PII paywall sites to compile passive information on a target on a ramen noodle budget.

To-Do

Skiptracer is intedned to be a community driven application. If you are interested in helping out drop us a note.

  • Finish converting to Python3 - Py2 EoL is 1/1/20
  • Add more API support
  • More Options from other countries so not so U.S.-centric results
  • Bypass some of the methods being used to block scapers, i.e. headless selenium
  • Ideas?
