About Us

Our Mission

DirBuster exists to make web security testing more effective and accessible. Our goal is to help professionals and learners uncover hidden directories and files so vulnerabilities can be fixed before they are exploited. We believe security begins with awareness and visibility.

What We Do

DirBuster is an open-source tool designed for discovering unlinked or hidden web resources. It is widely used in penetration tests, security audits, and educational labs. Alongside the tool, we provide resources, best practices, and guidance to encourage safe and ethical use.

Who We Are

We are a group of security practitioners, developers, and educators with experience in web application testing, software development, and defensive security. Our team is passionate about open-source projects and committed to helping the community learn, test, and improve security in responsible ways.

Ethics & Responsibility

DirBuster is powerful and must be used responsibly. Unauthorized scanning of websites or servers is illegal and against our values. We encourage testing only in environments where you have explicit permission and practicing responsible disclosure with system owners.

Get Involved

As an open-source project, DirBuster grows with community input. Whether through contributing code, enhancing wordlists, sharing tutorials, or providing feedback, there are many ways to support its development and help others learn.

Contact & Access

DirBuster is free to use and available from OWASP and major security distributions such as Kali Linux. For inquiries, collaborations, or contribution opportunities, please reach out to our team.
