SCANNING

This project is about scanning kali Linux and windows7 using Nmap tool and finding Open ports,
services, identify potential vulnerabilities associated with that service, and analyse the results,
prioritize vulnerabilities based on risk, and work with the organization to remediate the identified
issues.

INTRODUCTION TO SCANNING MODULE


Scanning module is an essential part of network security. Nmap tool and advanced IP
scanner are widely used for network scanning. This presentation will explore the capabilities
and usage of these tools.
SCANNING TOOLS
Nmap:
• Nmap is a powerful open-source network scanning tool.
• It is used for discovering hosts and services on a computer network.
• Nmap provides a wide range of scanning techniques and options.

Advance Ip scanner:
• Advanced IP Scanner is a free network scanner for Windows.
• It quickly scans IP addresses, ports, and detects shared folders and HTTP, HTTPS, FTP
services.
• Advanced IP Scanner offers remote control capabilities for managing network
devices.
OpenVAS:
• An open-source vulnerability scanner that detects security issues in networks.

Nessus:
• A comprehensive vulnerability assessment tool that identifies vulnerabilities,
misconfigurations, and policy violations.

Burp Suite:
• A web vulnerability scanner used to assess web application security.
IMPLEMENTATION:
Scanning kali Linux virtual machine:
Using Nmap tool performed scanning on kali Linux virtual machine.

VULNERABILITIES:
Starting Nmap 7.94 ([Link] at 2023-08-20 17:55 India Standard Time
Nmap scan report for [Link] ([Link])

Host is up (0.20s latency).

rDNS record for [Link]: [Link]

Not shown: 988 closed tcp ports (reset)


Scanning windows 7i virtual machine:

VULNERABILITY:
Nmap scan report for [Link] ([Link])
Host is up (0.20s latency).
rDNS record for [Link]: [Link]
Not shown: 988 closed tcp ports (reset)
Nmap Scripting Engine
• Nmap's scripting engine enables the execution of pre-built scripts against target
hosts.
• These scripts provide additional information and perform specific tasks during
scanning.
• Nmap's scripting engine is highly customizable and extensible.

LIMITATIONS AND CONSIDERATIONS:


• Scanning tools may trigger intrusion detection systems and firewalls.
• Some network devices may not respond well to scanning techniques.
• Always ensure compliance with legal and ethical guidelines when using scanning
tools
• Obtain proper authorization before conducting network scans.
• Be mindful of the impact scanning may have on network performance.
CONCLUSION:
The scanning module project is a comprehensive effort to develop a versatile, user-friendly, and
secure scanning solution that can be integrated into various applications. It involves careful planning,
design, development, testing, and ongoing maintenance to ensure its success and usefulness in a
wide range of scenarios.
