Tech Journal Week 1 - Robertsegee/SEC335 GitHub Wiki

This week we focused on passive recon. Passive recon is a type of reconnaissance that makes use of information that is public or already accessible by the public. In this type of reconnaissance, we do not interact directly with the target which means that there is no logging or any actual intrusion. Some tools that can be used for passive recon are netcraft and metagoofil. Some information that is gathered from passive recon is domain information, information about key targets from social media, and information about the physical locations of the target.
