SocialRecon is a high-performance, open-source social media reconnaissance and OSINT security scanner. It identifies social media presence, abandoned profiles, impersonation risks, and brand abuse from domains or usernames.
- Concurrent Scanning: High-speed discovery using Go worker pools and goroutines.
- Domain Discovery: Automatically extracts social links from website HTML, Meta tags, and JS.
- Risk Scoring Engine: Intelligent severity assessment based on platform authority and profile status.
- Executive Reporting: Export results to CLI (color-coded), JSON, or professional HTML dashboards.
- Modular Plugin System: Easily extensible architecture for adding new platforms.

SocialRecon evaluates OSINT findings using a weighted algorithm:
| Status | Risk Level | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Available | HIGH | Profile is available for registration (potential hijacking/squatting). |
| Suspended | MEDIUM | Profile exists but has been suspended by the platform. |
| Exists | INFO | Social media presence identified for the specified target. |
- Passive Reconnaissance: The tool only performs passive checks (HTTP GET) and does not interact with platform APIs in a way that requires credentials.
- No Credential Stuffing: Does not attempt to log in or use leaked credentials.
- Legal Compliance: Designed for authorized security audits, bug bounties, and brand protection.
