GOAD (Gather Open Attack Data) is a security reconnaissance framework for collecting, enriching, and visualizing open-source intelligence (OSINT) around hosts, domains, and certificates. It automates queries to certificate transparency logs, passive DNS, subdomain enumeration, web endpoints, and other public threat feeds. The tool aggregates results into structured formats and can produce interactive graphs to highlight relationships between entities (e.g. domain → IP → cert → ASN). Analysts...

...The codebase is frequently intended for security research and defensive testing: defenders and red teams use it to validate endpoint controls, USB whitelisting, and user training. Due to the dual-use nature of such techniques, responsible repositories emphasize lab-only experiments, consent-based testing, and mitigations like disabling autorun, enforcing device policies, and using endpoint detection.

...It is aimed primarily at defenders, incident responders, and security researchers who need a consolidated reference to understand common bypass vectors and to validate detection logic. The repository emphasizes defensive use—helping blue teams craft allow-list policies, create detection rules, and test policy hardening in isolated lab environments—rather than offensive exploitation.

...The project can create user objects with default or weak passwords, inject passwords into object descriptions, disable SMB signing, and manipulate ACLs to reproduce real-world privilege escalation and persistence scenarios. A convenience wrapper and examples make it straightforward to deploy in a local lab: you can install AD services, run the script on a domain controller, and generate hundreds of vulnerable accounts and conditions for testing. The repository emphasizes full coverage of the listed attack types and includes options to randomize which weakness

...The repository is organized as a stepwise kill-chain: recon, domain enumeration, local privilege escalation, user hunting, BloodHound guidance, lateral movement, persistence, domain-admin takeover, cross-trust attacks, data exfiltration, and a toolbox of payloads and helper scripts. It aggregates short, copy-ready PowerShell, C, .NET and Python snippets as well as command examples so operators can quickly run checks or reproduce techniques in lab environments. The content also includes .NET payload patterns, reverse PowerShell helpers, notes on privileged accounts and groups, and practical tips for hunting or protecting high-value targets.

...The collection ranges from benign administrative automation to offensive security demonstrations used in penetration testing, showcasing patterns like keystroke automation, reverse shells, credential capture (for lab use), and lateral transport techniques. Each payload typically includes a payload.txt control file with stages and configurable parameters so operators can adapt behavior to different targets. Because the device and its payloads are powerful, the repository emphasizes responsible use—training, red-team engagements with authorization, and awareness of legal/ethical boundaries.
