What Bunny Rating Does it Get?
Aquatone is a great tool to automate HTTP requesting tasks with flyovers control and also screenshot and port scanning at the same time, these tasks can be performed by many tools separately however Aquatone made this possible.
Pros
- Script is fast
- Check for "site:port" response
- Screenshot with headers information
Cons
- No longer perform domain takeovers
- no longer use nightmare.js for scanning
- No DNS Enumeration
I think that the older version of aquatone created with ruby is much better cause it uses API for OSINT resources and gives much efficiency report, however, This new version allows you to screenshot the hosts while scanning which was missing in the old project as a result a will be awarding this tool 3 out of 5 bunnies.
