Introduction

One of the most important phases of an attack is information gathering.

To be able to launch a successful attack, we need to gather as much as information as possible about our target. So, the more information we get, the higher the probability of a successful attack.

It is also important to note that not only gathering information but documenting it with clarity is of utmost importance. The Kali Linux release has several tools for documenting, collating and organizing information from various target machines, a better reconnaissance. Tools such as Dradis, CaseFile, and KeepNote are examples of it.
