Install nmap on Linux, Windows, or macOS via package managers or downloads, and learn to scan networks for online hosts, open ports, and running services with OS detection.
Use nmap to perform a ping sweep and enumerate devices on your local network, then scan ports to identify open services like web, ftp, or printer servers and assess vulnerabilities.
Map the network with Nmap to identify devices and their IP addresses. Scan targets for open ports and services, then explore exploits and Lua scripts to uncover weaknesses.
Explain tcp and udp protocols, emphasizing tcp as connection-oriented and reliable, and udp as connectionless. Present nmap scan types, including tcp scans (-sS/-sT), udp scans, and christmas scans.
Explore nmap tcp scan, detailing the tcp handshake with syn and syn-ack exchanges and noting that closed ports respond with a reset packet.
Learn to perform a UDP scan with Nmap using -sU, understand UDP’s connectionless nature, run with sudo, and identify open ports and services efficiently.
Explore stealthy Nmap scans using no scan, thin scan, and Christmas scan to evade firewalls while identifying open or closed ports.
Use the Nmap scripting engine to run vulnerability checks on a target IP, either by category or a specific script, with verbose output for detailed results.
Operate nmap's scripting engine to scan targets for vulnerabilities, run vulnerability scripts, and reveal weaknesses on Apache and MySQL, including possible denial of service and WordPress exploits depending on version.
Explore how nmap brute force scripts test exposed services by cycling through common usernames and passwords across protocols such as ssh, ftp, and mysql to assess access risk.
When it comes to hacking, knowledge is power. So how do you get more knowledge about your target system? One answer is nmap, a command line tool for Ethical Hackers.
nmap (“network mapper”) is a security scanner (port scanner) tool for *nix based operating systems. The program attempts to determine which ports on the machine listening and which services (application name and version) the machine is offering information. nmap offers a number of features, including the following:
Port scanning, OS detection, version detection, script scanning, traceroute hostname detection, reverse DNS lookup, ping sweeping, and reserved IP address detection.
This course will introduce you to nmap, you will be able to find out which targets are in the network, which network services are running and you'll be able to carry out attacks to those systems.
This is a beginners course, you don't need any prior knowledge but if you have some knowledge on computer networks that's beneficial. The course does not contain any programming, it focuses only on network scanning and attacks.
The course contains theory, videos and quizes to make sure you understand all the concepts.
If you want to learn more about Ethical Hacking and are a beginner, this course is for you. What are you waiting for? Let's hack
