# Performing OSINT with SpiderFoot
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
SpiderFoot is an open-source OSINT automation tool with 200+ modules that integrates with data sources for threat intelligence and attack surface mapping. This skill uses the SpiderFoot REST API and CLI (sf.py/spiderfoot-cli) to create and manage scans, select modules by use case (footprint, investigate, passive), parse structured results for domains, IPs, email addresses, leaked credentials, and DNS records, and generate target intelligence profiles.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## When to Use
|
|
|
|
- When conducting security assessments that involve performing osint with spiderfoot
|
|
- When following incident response procedures for related security events
|
|
- When performing scheduled security testing or auditing activities
|
|
- When validating security controls through hands-on testing
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- SpiderFoot 4.0+ installed or SpiderFoot HX cloud account
|
|
- Python 3.8+ with requests library
|
|
- SpiderFoot server running on default port 5001
|
|
- Optional: API keys for VirusTotal, Shodan, HaveIBeenPwned modules
|
|
|
|
## Steps
|
|
|
|
1. Connect to SpiderFoot REST API or use CLI interface
|
|
2. Create a new scan with target specification (domain, IP, email, name)
|
|
3. Select scan modules by use case (all, footprint, investigate, passive)
|
|
4. Monitor scan progress via API polling
|
|
5. Retrieve and parse scan results by data element type
|
|
6. Extract key findings: subdomains, IPs, emails, leaked credentials
|
|
7. Generate structured OSINT intelligence report
|
|
|
|
## Expected Output
|
|
|
|
JSON report containing OSINT findings organized by data type (domains, IPs, emails, credentials, DNS records), module source attribution, and target profile summary with risk indicators.
