This paper presents the ptwebdiscover, an advanced tool designed for web application mapping in the reconnaissance phase of penetration testing. Unlike most available tools, it operates using multiple threads, boasts modularity, and enhances testing capabilities. Notable features include the implementation of a brute force method for searching shorter file names and the ability to mark specific locations in tested URLs for string insertion. The paper provides comprehensive details about the tool's multi-threaded implementation, intelligent backup searches, and comparisons with other web application penetration testing tools. Furthermore, ptwebdiscover has been seamlessly integrated into the Penterep platform, providing a significant advantage during manual web application penetration testing.
