Here are ten open-source recon tools that deserve to be in your arsenal.

Altdns is a DNS recon tool that allows for the discovery of subdomains that conform to patterns.

From these two lists provided as input to Altdns, the tool then generates a massive output of "Altered" or "Mutated" potential subdomains that could be present.

The high adoption rate of Amass potentially means better data consistency and integration with other tools.

Aquatone is a tool for the visual inspection of websites across a large number of hosts and is convenient for quickly gaining an overview of HTTP-based attack surface.

Naabu is a port scanning tool written in Go that allows you to enumerate valid ports for hosts in a fast and reliable manner.
