 Dirb tool


Dirb is a web directory scanning tool that comes on kali Linux. This tool can use by penetration testers for scan hidden files, directories and pages on a web server.

This tool includes wordlists with more than 4000 words that can use for automatic brute forcing.



Dirb is pre-installed tool in kali Linux, incase you use Linux distro other than Kali , you can run this command for install Dirb.

` sudo apt-get install dirb `







After installation you can simply run the tool by running this command on terminal.
