Gobuster is a brute-force discovery tool that tests names from a wordlist to find hidden web directories, files, DNS subdomains, and virtual hosts.
Main Uses:
- Finding hidden pages and directories on a website (e.g., /admin, /backup.zip).
- Discovering subdomains for a domain (e.g., dev.example.com, api.example.com).
- Finding different websites hosted on the same IP address.
- Finding open Amazon S3 and Google Cloud Storage buckets.
