HostHunter is a recon tool for discovering hostnames using OSINT techniques.
HostHunter v1.5 is a tool to efficiently discover and extract hostnames over a large set of target IP addresses. It utilises simple OSINT techniques. It generates a CSV file containing the results of the reconnaissance.
Taking screenshots was also added as a beta functionality.
