secator is a task and workflow runner for security assessments that unifies dozens of well-known security tools (subfinder, httpx, ffuf, nmap, etc.) behind a single CLI and Python library. It provides unified input/output schemas, pre-built workflows, and distributed execution via Celery.

Use cases

  • run subdomain enumeration and HTTP probing from one command
  • orchestrate pentesting tools with unified output
  • run host reconnaissance workflows
  • fuzz URLs with multiple fuzzers and custom wordlists
  • automate security scans in a pipeline
  • build custom security tooling on top of a Python library
  • run distributed security scans with Celery workers

When to choose

  • you want one interface over many security tools instead of installing and scripting each
  • you need consistent output schemas across recon, fuzzing, and scanning tools
  • you want pre-built pentest workflows or the ability to define custom ones in YAML
  • you need to run security tasks as a Python library or distribute them with Celery

When to avoid

  • you need a single specialized tool rather than an orchestrator
  • you require an OSI-approved open-source license (it uses BSL 1.1)
  • your target tools are not among the supported integrations and you don't want to write custom tasks
  • you need a GUI-driven vulnerability management platform
