Description
Welcome to this Nmap Ultimate Hands-On Course!
Nmap is a swiss army knife. You cannot go far as a hacker without it.
It belongs in the toolbox of every Cybersecurity professional, network engineer, penetration tester, ethical hacker, or SOC analyst.
The problem is that there are so many OPTIONS and SWITCHES to remember! What do they do? When do I use them? How can I remember them?
If you have ever felt that way when getting started with Nmap, this is the course for you. In this class there are a grand total of two powerpoint slides. Why? Because slides are boring. Instead, we will walk through several hands-on labs that will help you build your Nmap skills as you run each scan along with me.
But there is more.
With each scan, we are going to capture it with Wireshark and learn how it really works. Instead of just waiting for an output and hoping to understand what to do with it, we will be looking at the scan and responses from a target at the packet level. This will help us know and remember what we are putting out on the wire and what to do with the results we receive from the test.
My name is Chris Greer and I am a Wireshark University instructor, as well as a packet analysis consultant for companies all over the globe. Like you, I started out with a deep interest in cybersecurity and ethical hacking. Looking at Nmap scans in Wireshark helped me to understand them, remember them, and utilize them to find vulnerabilities in networks and servers.
Ready to SCAN? Let's get to it!
Who this course is for:
- Beginner Ethical Hackers, Penetration Testers, SOC Analysts, Threat Hunters, and Network Engineers will all learn a foundational skill and critical tool for their toolbox!

I love packet analysis!
Why? Because packets hold the keys to solving gritty, complex, long-standing issues affecting networks and applications today. However, it is one thing to capture packets and another to interpret and understand them.
I am passionate about helping network engineers, cybersecurity professionals, and developers of all experience levels gain comfort with packet analysis. I bring 20 years of packet analysis experience to each course that I teach, whether live or on-demand. Join me on a course and let's have some fun while we learn!
