URL Fuzzer: Website Directory Scanner

What is black box penetration testing, and how is it related to URL fuzzing?

Fuzzing is considered a type of “black box testing” in which an application is tested from the outside as if a hacker were attempting to break in without accessing the source code.

Fuzz testing is the automated technique of detecting software security flaws by sending permuted inputs into a program and examining the output until one of the inputs discloses a vulnerability. It’s a close-box testing and quality assurance (QA) approach that involves flooding a target software with enormous volumes of data termed fuzz to crash it.

Even though cybercriminals may seem to waste time looking for security flaws in software applications or systems, it’s not always the case. Generally, they merely snoop around until they locate a flaw to abuse. Fuzzing is the process of meticulously recreating this probing about into a well-defined testing method.

We offer you a cyber security made easy approach:

• Developers get to save around 100 hours per year due to reduced test setup and remediation help right in the scan report.
• Save on average 40% on your pentesting budget and enable constant security posture transparency while decreasing your exposure.

Note: You must own and have the permissions to set the URL fuzzer. Black box penetration testing can generate different HTTP Requests that can be considered attacks (even if they are entirely inoffensive), so consider that you need the authorization to run this tool.

Why should I find hidden files on my website?

It is crucial to determine and classify sensitive data with extra security controls. This data should then be filtered by its sensitivity level and appended with the appropriate security control and settings. If you scan your website directory using a tool as a URL fuzzer, you will:

• Prevent attacks that could let someone read and write files.
• Fix weaknesses that could compromise your entire web app.
• SQLi, XSS, or CRSF vulnerabilities could let hackers extract, change and remove information from the database.

You may also obtain a security certificate from us, which will demonstrate to your clients and users that you continue security testing.

A frequent black-box testing also safeguards your company’s reputation, as it demonstrates your dedication to guaranteeing business continuity and maintaining an effective partnership with corporate security.

How do I start with directory scanning?

Set up and start scanning in less than 2 minutes.

• Check the fastest setup on the market. You’re only a click away from discovering your flaws. We scan your web application in less than 2 minutes and produce a report detailing all vulnerabilities discovered.
• An excellent support team of security. We verify your black-box pentest to set up our tool correctly.
• Test all Top 10 OWASP vulnerabilities. You’ll get precisely the types of attacks you are exposed to and the risk levels they have.

How does the URL fuzzer work?

Our URL fuzzer uses a list of sensitive file names and looks if it can find it somewhere on the server.

To give you a perspective, let’s say an administrator creates a backup of the web application and forgets to remove it from the server. If an attacker finds this backup archive, they could download it and gain access to the source code of the entire web application. Our fuzzer looks for files like this and reports them to you.
