Nmap (“Network Mapper”) is an open source tool for network exploration and security auditing. It was designed to rapidly scan large networks, although it works fine against single hosts. Nmap uses raw IP packets in novel ways to determine what hosts are available on the network, what servic...
purpose, router, switch, game console, etc). Most fingerprints also have a Common Platform Enumeration (CPE). representation, like cpe:/o:linux:linux_kernel:2.6. If Nmap is unable to guess the OS of a machine, and conditions are good (e.g. at least one open port and one closed port...
Now instead of using a simple nmap-services table lookup to determine a port's likely purpose, Nmap will (if asked) interrogate that TCP or UDP port to determine what service is really listening. In many cases it can determine the application name and version number as well. Obstacles like...
After several months of intense private development, we are pleased torelease Nmap 3.45, including an advancedversion detection system. Now instead of using a simple nmap-services table lookup to determine a port's likely purpose, Nmap will (if asked) interrogate that TCP or UDP port to determi...

So Nmap is a multipurpose tool, and it can be run on many different operating systems, including Windows, Linux, BSD and Mac. Nmap is a very powerful utility that can be used to: Detect the live host on the network (host discovery) ...
Core Attributes of Nmap on Debian: Versatile Scanning: Nmap is capable of scanning both IPv4 and IPv6 networks and supports a range of techniques, from ping scans and port scans to advanced OS and service version detections. Purpose-Driven: Ideal for network exploration, security assessments, vul...
