A Research Work on Information Gathering Tools

Abstract— As we have done a detailed review/seminar on the base topic Dmitry is a KALI LINUX tool. The aim of these tools is to assist attackers in identifying information about a target and finding possible attack vectors that could be used against the device. This knowledge can be extremely useful in social engineering attacks because it provides the attacker with possible contact information. It can also make the perpetrator appear more trustworthy if they can include details about the owner's web page or domain. On the basis of preliminary research, we will compare Dmitry to other information gathering tools in Kali Linux, such as the Nmap tool, ZenMap, whois lookup, and SPARTA. Comparisons may be made based on the tools' different capabilities.Each tool has its own set of benefits. For example, Nmap is primarily used to discover hosts, ports, and services, as well as their versions, over a network, while whois lookup is primarily used to verify the availability of domain names and track down the registrants of fraud domains.
