## What it is
BruteX is a shell-based CLI tool that automatically brute forces all services running on a target, enumerating open ports, usernames, and passwords. It is part of the Sn1perSecurity offensive security ecosystem and can be run directly or via Docker.

## Use cases
- brute force credentials on a target host
- enumerate usernames and passwords across open services
- automate brute forcing during a pentest engagement
- find weak credentials in a bug bounty scope
- test SSH, FTP, and other services for default passwords

## When to choose
- you need a one-command brute force across all services on a target
- you are running Kali/Debian or Docker-based pentest workflows
- you want a lightweight script rather than a full scanning platform

## When to avoid
- you need a full attack surface management or vulnerability scanning platform
- you require an OSI-approved open-source license for commercial redistribution
- you need supported non-Linux platforms without Docker

## Facets
