About EyeWitness
EyeWitness is designed to take screenshots of websites, provide server header info, and identify default credentials if possible. It is built to run on Kali Linux and supports capturing screenshots from HTTP/HTTPS websites, RDP services, and VNC servers. EyeWitness automatically categorizes captured screenshots into groups like 'High Value Targets' (admin panels, login pages), 'Content Management Systems', 'Network Devices', and '404 Not Found', making it easy to prioritize targets during large-scale assessments. The HTML report includes the screenshot, server headers, and any identified default credentials, with sortable columns and search functionality. EyeWitness uses Selenium with a headless browser for web screenshots and integrates with Nmap and Nessus XML output for seamless workflow integration.
About httpx
Httpx is a fast and versatile HTTP toolkit designed for probing and analyzing HTTP servers. It efficiently handles retries and fallbacks to ensure comprehensive server detection and supports a wide range of features like URL filtering and request concurrency. Built in Go, Httpx is optimized for performance and is part of the ProjectDiscovery suite, making it a valuable asset for security professionals conducting web reconnaissance and HTTP-based assessments.
