Problem

As a cybersecurity firm, we were tasked with finding hidden web directories on our client's website. Our traditional methods of manual searching were not efficient and time-consuming, leading to delays in the project timeline.

We needed a solution that could automate the process and provide accurate results in a timely manner.

Solution

We decided to use two open-source tools, dirsearch and dirbuster, to automate the process of finding hidden web directories. We ran both tools simultaneously and compared their results to ensure accuracy.

The combination of these tools allowed us to scan the entire website quickly and efficiently while also providing detailed reports on any discovered directories.
