• Port scanning
  To check ports for a target. Log output supported.
• Nmap
  To check ports by additional means using nmap
• Check HTTP option methods
  To check the methods (e.g. GET,POST) for a target.
• Grab DNS server info
  To show the info about DNS server.
• Shodan host search To collect host service info from Shodan. Request Shodan API key to enable the feature.
• FTP connect with anonymous To check if it has anonymous access activated in port 21. FTP users can authenticate themselves using the plain text sign-in protocol (Typically username and password format), but they can connect anonymously if the server is configured to allow it. Anyone can log in to the server if the administrator has allowed an FTP connection with an anonymous login.
• SSH connect with Brute Force To check ssh connection to scan with Brute Force. Dictionary data is in data/dict.
