Show HN: DefendFlow Radar – An attacker-view recon engine for domains

1•riyao_lin•2mo ago
Hi HN,

I’ve been working on a security tool called DefendFlow Radar, and I’d love to get feedback from the community.

The idea behind it is simple: What does your domain look like from the attacker’s point of view? A surprising amount of security exposure comes from misconfigured DNS, forgotten services, exposed subdomains, expired DMARC, and stale SaaS entries. We built tools to detect these issues quickly and automatically.

What Radar does • Enumerates domains/subdomains using multiple recon techniques • Checks DNS hygiene, DMARC/SPF/DKIM correctness • Identifies stale/exposed endpoints and unintended public surfaces • Maps attack surface across services & SaaS providers • Generates a digestible “risk snapshot” of the domain

Here you can give it a free trial: https://radar.defendflow.xyz/

Why we built it

My co-founder is a penetration tester, and we found ourselves repeatedly running 15–20 different tools to get a clear picture of an organization’s external footprint. We wanted something that: 1. Gives a single attacker-view perspective 2. Is fast enough to use during initial recon 3. Doesn’t require installing a big agent or pipeline 4. Shows useful misconfigurations non-security engineers can understand

So we built this as a side project. Over time it evolved into a more complete recon engine.

How it works (technical highlights) • Uses layered probing (DNS, HTTP metadata, MX checks, SSL, cloud service inference) • Performs domain validation • Incorporates passive and active signal collection • Surface mapping logic written mostly in Rust • No agent, crawler, or network access needed from the user side • Outputs everything as structured JSON behind the scenes

Happy to answer any questions about how it works internally.

Looking for feedback

I’m especially interested in feedback from: • security engineers • SRE/DevOps folks • people who maintain DNS/SPF/DMARC at work • anyone who’s had to clean up legacy SaaS footprint

If something is unclear or missing, I’d really appreciate the critique.

Thanks for taking a look!

Author here: adding a bit more context. The scanning code is mostly written in Rust, and I’m slowly breaking pieces of it out so they can be used as standalone CLI utilities. If there’s interest, I can open-source some of the passive/active DNS probing modules.

Also happy to scan any domains you want to test — just share them (or DM if preferred).

Appreciate all feedback, including criticism.
