## What it is
w12scan is a self-hosted network asset discovery engine that aggregates scan results into a searchable web interface backed by Elasticsearch. It pairs a Django-based web console with distributed scanning clients that perform port scanning, web fingerprinting, and PoC-based vulnerability verification.

## Use cases
- search internet-exposed assets by domain, IP, port, or CMS
- discover subdomains and related assets for a company
- run distributed network asset scanning with docker
- verify known vulnerabilities against discovered web apps
- build a self-hosted cyberspace search engine like Shodan
- track and label assets belonging to specific organizations

## When to choose
- you need a self-hosted asset discovery and search platform
- you want distributed scanning clients feeding a central searchable database
- you need search syntax over titles, headers, ports, services, and components

## When to avoid
- you need a lightweight scanner without Elasticsearch overhead (requires ~8GB RAM)
- you need actively maintained software with recent updates
- you only need a simple one-off port scan rather than an asset aggregation engine
