COURSE SYLLABUS


Module 1

Introduction to Nmap

This module is going to give us a basic understanding of Nmap, why it is important and what it can be used for. We are going to teach how to install the required tools for the course on both a Windows operating system and a Linux operating system. It is important that you understand the concept of this tool to be able to integrate its use in subsequent modules.

  • Understanding Nmap
  • History and Future of Nmap
  • Nmap & Legal Implication
  • Installing Nmap - Windows OS, Linux Distributions
  • Nmap Scan Phases
  • Installing Nmap on your system

Module 2

Working with Nmap

In this module, you will learn about the different parameters, techniques and switches used to engage Nmap in achieving results for analysis. This is required for Nmap basic usage. It is important to understand this module to be able to comprehend the Nmap Script Engine which will be covered in the next module.

  • Target & Host Discovery
  • Port Scanning Techniques
  • Service Version Detection
  • OS Detection
  • Evading Firewall & Intrusion Detection System
  • Scanning with Nmap
  • Detecting Service, version & OS with Nmap

Module 3

Advanced Scanning - Nmap Script Engine

This module will introduce the Nmap Script Engine, which enables you to implement different scripts available in Nmap. It contains scripts that will be used to detect vulnerabilities, engage in brute-forcing, and  detect other services, etc.

  • Introduction to Nmap Script Engine
  • Default Nmap Script Engine
  • Enumeration & Discovery with NSE
  • Vulnerability & Malware Detection with NSE
  • Brute Forcing with NSE
  • Exploiting with .nse
  • Exploiting using Nmap
  • Enumeration using Nmap
  • Brute Forcing with Nmap

Module 4

Working with Zenmap

The module is designed for student to explore Graphics User Interface of Nmap which is Zenmap. All we have learnt in the previous model will be put into practice via the GUI. We will be able to practice different use cases of both Nmap and Zenmap. We shall eview specific scanning techniques and scripts for stealthy and noisy scans and firewall evasion. Also, you will learn how to design your own default scanning command and script with Zenmap.

  • Introduction to Zenmap
  • Scanning with Zenmap
  • Interpreting Zenmap Results
  • Nmap Use Case 1
  • Nmap Use Case 2
  • Zenmap Use Case 3
  • Scanning without default script using Zenmap

Final exam

Final exam:

  • Interpreting Results Practical Assignment
