In this week we discussed the uses of Nmap. Well we first want to know what is Nmap. Nmap is a free open-source network scanner used to discover hosts, locale and remote ports, including network information in a computer network. It is currently the most popular network mappers in the world.
Uses of Nmap:
- Discover hosts
- Create a complete computer network map
- Find remote IP addresses of any hosts
- Get the OS system and software details
- Scan open ports on local and remote systems
- Detect and find vulnerabilities on remote and local hosts
This is the result when using Nmap, and as you can see, there are a list of open ports, Operating system, and MAC address. These information can be very useful to an attacker that knows just how to use them.
