Ethical Hacking And Penetration Testing Scanning And Enumeration
Programming
A:
4–6 paragraphs
As you being to perform the network-mapping phase of the scenario, you have been asked what the difference between scanning and enumeration is.
Take this opportunity to discuss the following:
- Describe the processes of scanning and enumeration.
- What do they entail, and what is the desired outcome?
- In addition, research and recommend at least 2 scanning and enumeration tools that your organization could use.
B:
2–4 pages
Now that you have an understanding about how the organization is set up (with respect to the network and system infrastructures), it is time to fill in the details and see what actually exists and what attack vectors are present. This assignment will have you review the network structure and identify the machines, including operating systems and running services on each. You will scan and enumerate the system in your organization.
Using a scanning and enumeration tool, identified or chosen and then installed from above, perform a scan against your home/personal machine or network, and supply the following information about your organization:
- A description about the tool used to perform the scan
- A list of identified target host(s) in your lab environment
- What running services are detected on each (include version numbers if possible)
- What the detected operating system of the servers is
Describe or list any information that you found odd or that you think the tool reported incorrectly.
Add a discussion about the attack framework and the identified system(s) information to your report.
