recon-ng workflow

recon-ng -w <workspace>

OSINT framework with modules to collect information from domains, contacts, social networks and more.

When you need a unified platform to run multiple OSINT modules against a target. Recon-ng allows creating workspaces, saving results and exporting them. It is ideal for structured and reproducible reconnaissance. In long engagements, I use it to organize information gathered from various sources.

If you only need a quick tool like theHarvester or sublist3r, recon-ng is heavier. Also not if you don't want to configure APIs (some modules require keys).
