Perform brute-force attacks to obtain alive subdomains. There are 2 types of brute force. Here there is a risk of getting detected on the target server:

• Pure Bruteforce: Check subdomains from a.domain.com to zzz.domain.com (26 + 26^2 + 26^3 = 18278 subdomains) this bruteforce can be disabled with -nb, –no-bruteforce
• Wordlist based: Use a custom wordlist provided by the user using the flag -w, –wordlist. If no wordlists are specified, this mode won’t be executed.
