Discover

Discover is an integrated suite of security tools designed for penetration testing, container auditing, payload generation, network reconnaissance, and automated open-source intelligence gathering. This collection of bash scripts provides a coordinated framework for security auditing on Kali Linux and Ubuntu.

The toolkit includes a specialized generator for creating reverse shell payloads across various hardware architectures and operating systems, paired with automated configuration for network listeners. It also features a dedicated container security auditor to identify vulnerabilities, leaked secrets, and misconfigurations in images and orchestration clusters.

The system covers a broad range of security operations, including passive intelligence gathering from public records, active network reconnaissance for port and service discovery, and web application vulnerability scanning for issues such as open redirects. It also provides utilities for SSL certificate analysis and the transformation of structured XML security scan data into CSV format.
