Domain Hunter is a Python CLI tool that finds expired or available domains with prior benign usage history via ExpiredDomains.net, then checks their reputation against services like BlueCoat, IBM X-Force, and Cisco Talos. It generates timestamped HTML and text reports with Archive.org history links to identify good candidates for phishing and C2 domains during red team engagements.

Use cases

  • find expired domains with good reputation for red team engagements
  • check domain categorization on BlueCoat and Cisco Talos
  • search available domains by keyword with prior history
  • identify domains that bypass reputation-based web filters for C2
  • generate HTML reports of domain reputation and archive.org history
  • bulk check a list of domains for reputation

When to choose

  • you are a red teamer or penetration tester preparing phishing or C2 infrastructure
  • you need to find pre-categorized expired domains to evade reputation-based filtering
  • you want automated reputation checks across multiple services with a report

When to avoid

  • you need defensive domain monitoring or brand abuse detection
  • you require a GUI or continuous domain monitoring service
  • you do not have an ExpiredDomains.net account for full functionality
