Web Vulnerability Scanning Framework

Abstract

Abstract: The increasing reliance on web-based systems has brought cybersecurity to the forefront of concerns for organizations and individuals alike. In this paper, we present a framework that leverages open-source tools for information gathering (reconnaissance) and vulnerability assessment in web-based systems. The framework is designed to be hosted as a website, providing a user-friendly interface for cybersecurity practitioners to conduct reconnaissance and identify vulnerabilities in their target systems. Through integration of various open-source tools, our framework enables efficient and effective information gathering and vulnerability scanning, aiding in the identification and mitigation of potential security risks. Our framework contributes to the field of cybersecurity by providing a unified solution for reconnaissance and vulnerability assessment in webbased systems. The integration of open-source tools and the flexibility of our framework make it a valuable resource for cybersecurity practitioners.
