PywerView is a partial Python rewrite of PowerSploit's PowerView for Active Directory enumeration, built on impacket. It lets pentesters run AD reconnaissance commands from Linux without needing a domain-joined machine or PowerShell.

Use cases

• enumerate active directory users and groups from linux
• find which domain users have local admin on machines
• run powerview-style recon without powershell
• script active directory enumeration during pentests
• list domain computers and sessions with stolen credentials
• perform AD reconnaissance from a non-domain-joined host

When to choose

• you're a pentester on Linux needing AD enumeration
• you want scriptable Python AD recon instead of PowerShell
• you need to enumerate a domain from a machine not joined to it

When to avoid

• you need full PowerView feature coverage like GPO or user hunting functions
• you're on a domain-joined Windows box where native PowerView works
• you need a fully stable, bug-free tool for production use
