BashHound

Active Directory data collector for BloodHound written in Bash

Bash • Fast • Stealth

Description

BashHound is a BloodHound data collector written in Bash, inspired by RustHound and SharpHound. It is designed to be compatible with Linux. It generates all the JSON files that can be analyzed by BloodHound.

BashHound was created as a technical challenge rather than for real-world use. Although the tool works, it is incomplete and not fully functional for advanced usage. Updates will be released regularly to improve it and make it increasingly functional.
