In case of an automated security scan is it more desirable to get the scanner IP addresses whitelisted in order to possibly find vulnerabilities behind the firewall, or to scan in front of/against the firewall?
Example scena… Continue reading Security scan with, or without, IP whitelisting in the firewall and isn’t that introducing a weak point?
I tried to scan my network for hosts. However, it seems like it didn’t scan the MAC. I tried all kinds of TCP and UDP scans on different kind of ports but the hosts doesn’t show up.
It’s strange because I can ping to the ho… Continue reading Nmap – host discovery doesn’t show all hosts
I figured this would be the most relevant place to ask this question. I’m using a Kali VM to run some network scans. The results are different depending on whether my network interface is bridged or NATed.
Running this scan nmap -sn 192.1… Continue reading NMAP host discovery reporting discrepant results between NAT and Bridged mode
I’m fairly new to network stuff and currently exploring a Wi-Fi radio device in my home network. In this process I noticed an open port.

When doing a vulnerability assessment on a large network, it seems general practice to determine which hosts on the network are live.
This can be done in various ways. From what I have read it is good to do some ICMP scans, perhaps use a … Continue reading Determining false positives when scanning for live hosts with Nmap
I am trying to find the live hosts on my network using nmap. I am scanning the network in Ubuntu using the command sudo nmap -sP 192.168.2.1/24. However, I am unable to find the live hosts. I just get the network address of my own PC as li… Continue reading How to find live hosts on my network?
