## What it is
GasMasK is an all-in-one open source OSINT and reconnaissance tool written in Python 3. It aggregates information about a target domain from many sources including search engines, DNS, whois, certificate transparency, Shodan, and Censys.

## Use cases
- gather osint on a domain
- enumerate subdomains and dns records
- find emails and employees via linkedin and google
- whois lookup for a domain
- query shodan and censys for exposed hosts
- reconnaissance before a pentest
- search certificate transparency logs for subdomains

## When to choose
- you want a single CLI that queries many OSINT sources for a domain
- you need quick passive reconnaissance during a security assessment
- you want results exported in multiple output formats

## When to avoid
- you need active scanning or exploitation rather than passive information gathering
- you need a maintained tool - the latest release dates to 2021 and some sources like Spyse or Google+ may be defunct
- you need a GUI or web interface

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: maintenance
- function: osint, web-scraping, search-engine, security
- domain: security, osint, penetration-testing
- platform: python, cli
- tags: reconnaissance, information-gathering, whois, dns-enum, shodan, censys, command-line, linux
