A Sigma and RDAP/Whois based abuse contacts finder.

![img](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ninoseki/abuse_whois/main/images/overview.jpg)

This tool is highly inspired from the following libraries:

- https://github.com/bradleyjkemp/abwhose
- https://github.com/certsocietegenerale/abuse_finder

## How It Works

- Query a given address via RDAP (fallback to Whois is if RDAP fails)
- Check a query result with Sigma rules and find contacts (fallback to regex if there is no match)

## Requirements

- Python 3.10+

## Installation

```bash
pip install abuse_whois

# or if you want to use built-in REST API
pip install abuse_whois[api]
```

## Usage

### As a library

```python
from abuse_whois import get_abuse_contacts

await get_abuse_contacts("1.1.1.1")
await get_abuse_contacts("github.com")
await get_abuse_contacts("https://github.com")
await get_abuse_contacts("foo@example.com")
```

### As a CLI tool

```bash
abuse_whois 1.1.1.1
abuse_whois example.com
abuse_whois foo@example.com
abuse_whois http://example.com
```

### As a REST API

```bash

## Contributions

`abuse_whois` works based on a combination of static rules and a parsing result of whois response.
