## Abstract
Patdown probes a network's DNS servers to determine whether they have resolved domains associated with various EDR/XDR solutions.
**Example**: if a network's resolver has `assets-public.falcon.crowdstrike.com` in its cache, chances are the '*CrowdStrike Falcon*' EDR solution is present somewhere on the network.
These DNS servers can be specified as arguments (the preferred way), or patdown can automatically retrieve and analyze the authoritative nameservers of a target with the `-t` flag.
⚠️ Authoritative nameservers are rarely used as egress recursive resolvers for networks and are not as efficacious for fingerprinting for EDR/XDR.
## Installation
Retrieve a binary corresponding to your architecture from **Releases**
*or*
`git clone https://git.supernets.org/delorean/patdown.git && cd patdown/cmd/patdown && go build -o patdown main.go && ./patdown`
## Usage
**Help**
`patdown -h`
**Target specific resolvers**
`patdown -n ns1.target.resolver -n ns2.another.target.resolver`
**Automatically snoop authoritative nameservers**
`patdown -t supernets.org`
