This video explains what Nikto is, who should use it, and how to perform authorized vulnerability scans safely. We cover high-level workflow, reading results, risk priorities, and remediation — without showing how to attack or exploit systems. Resources & official docs linked below.
Nikto is an open-source web server scanner (Perl) that checks web servers for thousands of potentially dangerous files, outdated server software and common misconfigurations.

OWASP and other security communities list Nikto as a useful tool for infrastructure/webserver scanning, but emphasize governance and safe usage.
This video covers what Nikto is and how to use it responsibly to find webserver issues. NO instructions to perform unauthorized scans are provided.
