In this course, you will learn about network penetration testing using NMAP. NMAP is the most popular tool in the ethical hacking world. This tool is widely used by Penetration Testers, Ethical Hackers, System Administrators, Network Engineers. This tool has great capability to gather information about computer networks. In this course, you will learn from a lab setup to complete network scanning using NMAP. In this course, I will guide you step by step to set up lab and use  NMAP. This course will give you complete knowledge about network scanning. After completion of this course, you will be able to find weaknesses and vulnerabilities of the network. This course is a complete ethical hacking based course. To be a good ethical hacker, you must have knowledge about NMAP. In this course, I am using kali Linux as a platform to demonstrate all the lectures. This course will give you complete knowledge about the full scan, half scan, three-way handshake process, FIN scan, XMAS scan, TCP scan, UDP scan, IDLE scan, Null Scan. This course will help a lot to those who are already working as IT professionals and who want to start their career in the field of penetration testing or ethical hacking. Network scanning is the most important phase of ethical hacking. In this course, you will learn complete network scanning using open source-based tools.

One of the most important features that Nmap has the ability to detect remote operating systems and software. It is very helpful during an Ethical Hacking to know about the operating system and the software used by the remote computer because you can easily predict the known vulnerabilities from this information.
