Re: Finding other websites for pen-testing...

www.netcraft.com

Check what that website is running. Click on the Network Name from the results, and Netcraft will show you (in some cases) what else is on that same subnet/ network.

Only works though if someone from that company has "pinged" Netcraft, so a specific host is in their database, though.

Otherwise, if you've got the contract to do a pentest, why not use scan their netblock with nessus/ nmap looking for other web servers?

You want to find out what other website that they may
have on different webservers that maybe in house
rather than being outsourced like their main website
or maybe they run a website that isn't as high profile
so they are pretty lax on keeping it updated.

If you go to netsol.com and do a whois on their main
website you can find out their address and all the
main contacts.  Is there a way to search this
information to find all the domains that have the same
contacts in them or maybe the same address?
