Information Gathering is the act of gathering different kinds of Information about the system . It is the part of “recon” to analyze a website or a system for any open port or any kind of suspect that can lead to the attack . So some tools are used to analyze the fault and recover that . There are many ways in a tool to recon over a web system some uses Python and in Python there are many modules like socket , requests , urllib.request etc which can make the connection with the web . Information Gathering is also the first step for any attacker to perform on a system to penetrate over that . So its upto the use , In my writeup overview this tool is slightly good for penetration testers to resolve the unsuall open ports and firewall details disclosure over the web .
I tried making a tool using Python .( git link)
