[...] Wikto is a Web Server Assessment Tool. It works by trying to find interesting directories and files on the web site, it looks for sample scripts that can be abused or finds known vulnerabilities in the web server implementation itself. It’s written for the MS .NET environment so, you need to install the .NET framework for Wikto. If you want to use Google functionality you will need a valid Google API key. It provides similar functionality as Nikto, with some additional features such as a Back-End miner and Google integration. Homepage Screenshots [...]
