Reconnaissance with Amass
You are in Red Team operations at Globomantics, a global healthcare tech provider, and your task is to map the organization's external attack surface. The CISO is concerned about shadow IT and hidden subdomains that can be vulnerable to takeover and other attacks. Your mission is to use OWASP Amass to perform comprehensive asset discovery, uncover hidden subdomains, and present a visualized attack surface map to the security leadership team.

Challenge
Configure Amass for Enumeration
To effectively map Globomantics’ public infrastructure, you cannot rely on public scraping alone. You must configure Amass to define the target scope and use specific API keys for services such as WhoisXMLAPI, SecurityTrails, and VirusTotal. In this challenge, you will review the Amass configuration and data source files to provide credentials, define the target scope, and access deeper data sources for more thorough reconnaissance.

Challenge
Execute Enumeration Using Amass
With the configuration set, it is time to launch the discovery engine against Globomantics to identify the hidden subdomains and associated IP addresses using the defined configuration files.

Challenge
Analyze and Organize Enumeration Data
The enumeration phase is complete, leaving you with a massive dataset of potential targets. Raw data becomes valuable only when it is analyzed. In this objective, you will access the enumeration results to extract actionable intelligence. You will parse the output to uncover hidden subdomains, remove irrelevant noise, and organize the findings to support attack planning and further analysis.

Challenge
Visualize the Attack Surface
A text list of domains is often difficult for business stakeholders to digest. To communicate the results to the CISO, you need a visual map. You will use Amass visualization features to generate an interactive dot file. This graph displays relationships among domains, IP addresses, and network blocks, enabling you to visually explain the identified clusters of infrastructure that represent high-value targets.

Real skill practice before real-world application
Hands-on Labs are real environments created by industry experts to help you learn. These environments help you gain knowledge and experience, practice without compromising your system, test without risk, destroy without fear, and let you learn from your mistakes. Hands-on Labs: practice your skills before delivering in the real world.
Learn by doing
Engage hands-on with the tools and technologies you’re learning. You pick the skill, we provide the credentials and environment.
Follow your guide
All labs have detailed instructions and objectives, guiding you through the learning process and ensuring you understand every step.
Turn time into mastery
On average, you retain 75% more of your learning if you take time to practice. Hands-on labs set you up for success to make those skills stick.
