Intruder vs. Nikto

When the infrastructure landscape and risk profile is not well known and is legacy, Intruder can scan and automate reporting on open security risks, as well as coordinate responses.

Nikto is well suited for scanning web server-related vulnerabilities for small and medium enterprises. We can utilise it for checking server default files and security misconfigurations. It is not suited well for some users because it is CLI based tool and not a GUI based. Also, community and OEM support are not available for this tool.
