Week 04: Vulnerability Scanning

Week 04 – Scanning

October 4, 2021 by William Bailey 8 Comments

This week we talked about initial scans using NMAP and NESSUS.  We also talked about using TCPDUMP as a packet sniffer.  As you work through your virtual environment this week, choose one (or more) of the following questions:

  1. What issue(s) are you encountering with NMAP, NESSUS, or other scanning tools?
  2. Did you discover any “interesting” traffic with TCPDUMP?
  3. How does practicing with a vulnerable device, such as the “MetaSploitable” help you learn more about vulnerability scanning and penetration testing?
