I Built ReconAx: A Lightweight Python Website Analyzer for Developers and Security Learners

I Built ReconAx: A Lightweight Python Website Analyzer for Developers and Security Learners

I recently released ReconAx v0.2.0, a lightweight website analyzer built with Python.

The idea was simple:

Give developers and security learners useful information about a website from a single command.

Instead of running several separate tools just to understand the basic structure and configuration of a website, ReconAx brings several passive checks together into one simple CLI.

🔍 What can ReconAx analyze?

ReconAx currently provides modules for:

  • HTTP and redirects
  • Security headers
  • Cookies
  • HTML
  • DNS
  • TLS
  • robots.txt
  • Sitemap
  • Technology detection
  • CORS
  • CSP
  • SRI
  • security.txt
  • Metadata
  • Resources
  • Endpoints
  • Attack surface
  • Website hygiene score

For example:


bash
reconax analyze example.com
