Recon is one of the most important phases that seem easy but takes a lot of effort and skill to do right. One needs to know about the right tools, correct queries/syntax, run those queries, correlate the information, and sanitize the output. All of this might be easy for a seasoned infosec/recon professional to do, but for rest, it is still near to magic. How cool it will be to ask a simple question like “Find me an open Memcached server in Singapore with UDP support?” or “How many IP cameras in Singapore are using default credentials?” in a chat and get the answer?
The integration of GPT-3, deep learning-based language models to produce human-like text, with well-known recon tools like Shodan, is the foundation of ReconPal. ReconPal also supports using voice commands to execute popular exploits and perform reconnaissance.
To get ReconPal up and running, follow these simple steps.
