Searching for open directories using GoBuster

In the previous recipe, we discussed how to find open ports on a network IP or domain name. Once we have open ports, we often see ports running web servers on different ports. Sometimes, developers leave open directories misconfigured, which may contain juicy information for us. Here, we will look at the GoBuster. It is a tool that was built in the Go language, which can be used for brute forcing directories as well as brute forcing subdomains.
