Installation Go Version Docker Images Snapcraft GitHub Downloads

You can find some additional installation variations in the Installation Guide.

Prebuilt Packages

  1. Simply unzip the package
  2. Put the precompiled binary into your path
  3. Start using OWASP Amass!

Homebrew

brew tap caffix/amass
brew install amass

Snapcraft

sudo snap install amass

Docker Container

  1. Install Docker
  2. Pull the Docker image by running docker pull caffix/amass
  3. Run docker run -v OUTPUT_DIR_PATH:/.config/amass/ caffix/amass enum -d example.com

The volume argument allows the Amass graph database to persist between executions and output files to be accessed on the host system. The first field (left of the colon) of the volume option is the amass output directory that is external to Docker, while the second field is the path, internal to Docker, where amass will write the output files.

From Sources

  1. Install Go and setup your Go workspace
  2. Download OWASP Amass by running go install -v github.com/OWASP/Amass/v3/...@master
  3. At this point, the binary should be in $GOPATH/bin

Testimonials

"Accenture’s adversary simulation team has used Amass as our primary tool suite on a variety of external enumeration projects and attack surface assessments for clients. It’s been an absolutely invaluable basis for infrastructure enumeration, and we’re really grateful for all the hard work that’s gone into making and maintaining it – it’s made our job much easier!"

- Max Deighton, Accenture Cyber Defense Manager
