In today's interconnected world, cybersecurity has emerged as a critical aspect impacting various spheres including employment and education. However, it's alarming that only a minority are cognizant of significant web vulnerabilities. Statistical analyses reveal that numerous small-scale industries have direct or indirect internet connectivity, making them susceptible to cyber threats. This project aims to conduct penetration testing to address this issue. Websites with vulnerabilities are highly susceptible to hacking. Hence, we propose to develop a scanner using penetration testing techniques to detect vulnerabilities in websites. Vulnerability scanning involves inspecting potential exploit points on a website to identify security vulnerabilities. This process helps in identifying system weaknesses, bugs, and vulnerabilities in communication equipment. Additionally, it aids in predicting the effectiveness of countermeasures.
