Which file is a rich target to discover the structure of a website during web-server footprinting?
A . Document root
B . Robots.txt
C . domain.oct
D . index.html

Answer: A

Explanation:

The document root is a directory (a folder) that is stored on your host’s servers and that is designated for holding web pages. When someone else looks at your web site, this is the location they will be accessing.

In order for a website to be accessible to visitors, it must be published to the correct directory, the “document root.”

You might think that there would only be one directory in your space on your host’s servers, but often hosts provide services beyond just publishing a website. In this case, they are likely to set up every account with several directories, since each service would require its own.
