Features

🌐 Domain Analyzer

Analyze URLs, email addresses, and IP addresses to reveal their threat level:

• Website Analysis: Search if a website is a known malicious site and take a secure screenshot using URLScan.io.
• Email Analysis: Verifies if email domains are free, disposable, or associated with suspicious activity.
• URL Analysis: Scans URLs to detect malware, phishing attempts, and suspicious redirects.
• IP Address Analysis: Checks if an IP address has been associated with previous malicious activity.
• WHOIS Data: Retrieves WHOIS information for domains to confirm registration dates, geographical origins, and other key details.

📨 Header Analyzer

Uncover security issues hidden in email headers:

• IP Address Analysis: Extracts originating IPs and determines their geographic and ISP origins. IP addresses from outside the US are flagged (I'm American - edit the code to change noob).
• SPF, DKIM, and DMARC: Validates authentication records to detect spoofing attempts.
• Intermediary Hop Analysis: Identifies intermediate servers through header inspection.

🔍 Sentiment Analyzer

Detect phishing and other sus language in email content:

• Content Analysis: Scans for urgency cues, suspicious language, and embedded links.
• OpenAI Integration: Uses AI to provide a classification score and risk assessment based on content indicators.

📎 Attachment Analyzer

Ensure attachments are safe before opening:

• File Scanning: Uploads files to VirusTotal and Hybrid Analysis to see if malicious or sus.
• Real-Time Reports: Displays detailed findings from VirusTotal and Hybrid Analysis, including detection by antivirus engines and potential threat levels.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Ensure you have Python 3.6+ installed. Install dependencies via:

pip install -r requirements.txt

API Keys

API Keys are NOT required but will limit the usefulness considerably. They are free. Don't be lazy. You can skip the OpenAI API if you don't want AI analysis.

WhoDAT requires API keys from several services. All are FREE (except openai but its like a penny). Add your keys in config/config.ini under the relevant sections:

• VirusTotal
• Google Safe Browsing
• URLScan
• OpenAI
• Hybrid Analysis

NOTE: config/config.ini MUST be in the same directory as whodat.py/whodat.exe.
