![]() ![]() Many schools and colleges are supporting the concept of eLearning and mobile learning. Mobile learning is the easiest way for students to get help. Mobile learning is also known as mLearning and is a new way to get access to a variety of content available online through the use of a mobile. If you are a penetration security engineer and assigned to check out a company’s network, Nmap may just do the job because of its portability and utility.Mobile learning is very prevalent in the current scenario. However, if your main focus is making sure any vulnerabilities are discovered, without the need to hire a network and security expert, then Nessus may just be the answer. Depending on your position and purpose, it may already be clear which tool is for you. All these can probably do with Nmap, but it would take a lot of work. ![]() Because of what Nessus can do, it can be applied in security audits, asset profiling, and vulnerability analysis. Like Nmap, it can do network discovery, but unlike Nmap, it is designed to scan systems to determine their vulnerabilities. The major function of Nessus is to provide security scanning capabilities to its user. At a basic level, Nessus is more focus on scanning vulnerability whereas NMAP is used for mapping a network’s hosts. Nessus has shown the information with more graphical. The data output of Nmap is text-based whether you use the GUI or command line. Firstly which are the ways output is presented to the user. NMAP and Nessus can both be considered network security scanners, but there are some differences between them. One of the tools called Nessus, let’s compare it with the Nmap. There’s have other tools for network scanning in the field of network security. Below are OS detection and UDP scanning with this command “nmap –sS –O ”. The reason I use Zenmap is that it provides a nice summarized output of Nmap commands and supports all of the features Nmap does.I also can view all the active host on the network with this command “nmap –v3 ”. I can scan 2 or more type of scan in a command. I can open a Nmap front end called Zenmap with this command “nmapfe”. I’ll use Nmap to ping scan the network, listing machines that respond to ping with this command “nmap –sP ”. There are ways to make port scans more stealthy included with Nmap, but they always require generating a whole lot of network traffic, and there is an inverse relationship between stealth and speed.Now I’d show some usage of Nmap. This can be remedied by slowing down the scan speed. One of the disadvantages is Nmap could make a DOS or network slowdown while is scanning weaker devices. Can’t think of any more disadvantages specific to Nmap, but port-scanning has some general flaws. Nmap able to create visual network on particular machines with Zenmap GUI. Nmap also can scan the network for various vulnerabilities. Nmap has a lot of advantage, one of the advantages is that send a well-crafted packet to the destination. Most of the security tools have advantage and disadvantage. Nmap can be used to scan the large network in a single run with efficiency. Even the ruleset of the firewall is written definitely, it also can identify the number of hosts. One of the features is host discovery, it can attempt to determine the accessible host on the network. ![]() Nmap can run on many platforms, it runs on all operating system (OS), such as Window, Solaris, IRX, etc.Now I would list some features and function about Nmap. It’ free of charge to use and open source utility. Now I want to introduce a port scanning tool about Network Mapped (Nmap). It also can detect weak port and launch exploit. Vulnerability scanning works for identifies vulnerabilities of a computer system. Vulnerability scanning is one of the network scanning. Hacker also uses network scanning for attacks. Network scanning is basically used for security assessment and system maintenance. What does the network scanning mean? Network scanning refers to do with a computer network to collect all information about computing systems. ![]()
