## What it is
Anubis is a Python CLI tool for subdomain enumeration and information gathering that aggregates results from sources like HackerTarget, VirusTotal, Shodan, NetCraft, and x509 certificates. It optionally integrates with AnubisDB, a centralized subdomain repository, and supports nmap and SSL scans.

## Use cases
- enumerate subdomains for a target domain
- find hidden subdomains during a pentest recon phase
- resolve IPs for discovered subdomains
- run nmap port scans on enumerated hosts
- gather SSL certificate and cipher info for a domain
- contribute discovered subdomains to a shared database

## When to choose
- you need a quick CLI-based subdomain enumerator aggregating multiple OSINT sources
- you want integrated nmap and SSL scanning alongside enumeration
- you're doing reconnaissance on Kali Linux or a security assessment

## When to avoid
- you need a GUI or web dashboard for recon results
- you require actively maintained large-scale enumeration with API-key-free operation
- you need passive DNS monitoring rather than point-in-time enumeration

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: active
- function: security, networking, cli
- domain: security, penetration-testing, networking
- platform: windows, python, cli
- tags: subdomain-enumeration, osint, reconnaissance, dns, information-gathering, kali, command-line, linux, macos
