Sn1per Community Edition

Sn1per Community Edition is a free, open-source attack surface management (ASM) and automated penetration testing platform built by working pentesters since 2014. Trusted by 500+ security teams worldwide, with 10,000+ stars and 2,000+ forks on GitHub.

Sn1per Community Edition discovers your organization's external attack surface, automates reconnaissance and OSINT collection, scans for vulnerabilities and CVEs, and verifies exploitability - all from a single command-line tool. Deploy on Kali Linux, Ubuntu, Debian, or Docker in minutes.

For the full web UI, multi-user workspaces, active exploitation modules, PDF reporting, and distributed scanning at enterprise scale, see Sn1per Professional 2026 and Sn1per Enterprise at https://sn1persecurity.com .

Use cases

• External Attack Surface Management (EASM) - Continuous discovery, monitoring, and risk prioritization of every internet-facing asset, including assets that don't appear in a CMDB. Combines DNS enumeration, certificate transparency, port scanning, web fingerprinting, and OSINT.
• Automated Penetration Testing - Orchestrate 600+ exploits and 10,000+ detections in a single workflow. Active verification eliminates the false positives that version-only vulnerability scanners ship as "critical."
• Bug Bounty Automation - Manage large attack surfaces and stay ahead of the competition with continuous scanning, change detection, and integrated reporting.
• Red Team Automation - Simulate real-world attackers and stress-test blue team detection and response.
• Vulnerability Scanning - Aggregate findings from open-source and commercial scanners into one centralized risk view. Integrates natively with Nessus, OpenVAS / GVM, Nuclei, OWASP ZAP, Burp Suite Pro, WPScan, and Metasploit.
• Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) - Scan web applications for OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, injection flaws, authentication weaknesses, and misconfigurations.
• Threat Intelligence and OSINT - Stay current with emerging CVEs, data breaches, and exploit releases. Native integrations with Shodan, Censys, Hunter.io, and VirusTotal.
• Continuous Attack Surface Monitoring - Schedule daily, weekly, or monthly rescans to detect new domains, subdomains, open ports, HTTP header changes, and exposed services.

Core features

• One-line installation script - running in under five minutes on Kali Linux, Ubuntu, Debian, or Docker
• 90+ native integrations with leading security tools, APIs, and threat intelligence services
• 600+ exploit modules and 10,000+ detection signatures
• Full attack surface coverage across on-prem, cloud, and hybrid environments
• Scope and configuration controls for safe execution in production environments
• Centralized IT asset inventory - searchable, sortable, and filterable
• Notifications for new domains, new URLs, open-port changes, and surface drift
• Export attack-surface inventory and vulnerability reports to CSV, XLS, or PDF
• Daily, weekly, or monthly scheduled scans with diff alerting
• On-premises deployment - scan data never leaves your environment
