Nmap Full Course: From Network Basics to Advanced Exploitation

Master the world of network security with this comprehensive A to Z course on NMAP, the industry standard tool for network mapping and vulnerability scanning. Whether you are a beginner or an aspiring penetration tester, this 7-hour masterclass covers everything from basic networking models to advanced firewall evasion techniques. 🚀 What you will learn in this course: In this extensive guide, we dive deep into the NMAP Scripting Engine (NSE), service detection, and OS fingerprinting. You will learn the practical side of cybersecurity by exploring various scan types like stealth, null, and Xmas scans while understanding the underlying TCP/IP and OSI models. We also cover installation across Windows, Linux, and Mac, along with powerful integrations using Wireshark and Python scripts. By the end of this course, you will be able to identify vulnerabilities, detect web application firewalls, and automate your reconnaissance workflow like a professional ethical hacker. We cover everything from port knocking and DNS brute forcing to advanced techniques like decoy scanning and spoofing MAC addresses to stay anonymous. 🕒 Chapters: 0:00 Intro to NMAP Complete Course 3:00 NMAP Highlights and Use Cases 6:30 Legal Considerations in Scanning 10:00 TCP IP Model Fundamentals 13:00 OSI Model Seven Layers 17:00 OSI Model in Daily Life 21:00 Data Flow in OSI Model 25:00 Difference Between TCP IP and OSI 28:30 TCP vs UDP Protocol Differences 33:00 TCP Three Way Handshake 37:00 LAN MAN and WAN Explained 41:00 Personal and Campus Networks 45:00 Internet Intranet and Extranet 49:00 Bus and Star Topologies 53:00 Ring and Hybrid Topologies 57:00 IP Addressing v4 vs v6 1:01:00 MAC Address and Physical Identity 1:05:00 Introduction to Ports and Protocols 1:10:00 FTP File Transfer Protocol Basics 1:15:00 Practical FTP Connection 1:20:00 Setting Up Free FTP Server 1:25:00 SSH Secure Shell Remote Login 1:30:00 Telnet vs SSH Comparison 1:35:00 RDP Remote Desktop Protocol 1:40:00 SMTP POP3 and IMAP Email Protocols 1:45:00 DNS Domain Name System Explained 1:50:00 Practical DNS Lookup 1:55:00 DHCP and the DORA Process 2:00:00 HTTP and HTTPS Web Protocols 2:05:00 NMAP Installation Windows 2:10:00 NMAP Installation Linux 2:15:00 NMAP Installation Mac OS 2:20:00 Wireshark Installation Mac 2:25:00 Wireshark Installation Linux 2:30:00 TCP Connect Scan Deep Dive 2:35:00 Stealth SYN Scan Techniques 2:40:00 Null Scan for Stealth 2:45:00 UDP Scanning Practical 2:50:00 Fin Scan Methodology 2:55:00 Xmas Scan Explained 3:00:00 ACK Scan and Firewall Rules 3:05:00 Idle Zombie Scan Theory 3:10:00 Practical Idle Scan Execution 3:15:00 Summary of NMAP Scan Types 3:20:00 Scanning Single IP and Domain 3:25:00 Scanning IP Ranges 3:30:00 Subnet Scanning Basics 3:35:00 Fast Port Scanning 3:40:00 NMAP Host Discovery 3:45:00 NMAP vs Net Discover 3:50:00 ARP Scan Comparison 3:55:00 Scanning from List Files 4:00:00 Random Target Scanning 4:05:00 Excluding Specific Hosts 4:10:00 Excluding Hosts via Files 4:15:00 Bypassing Ping Discovery PN 4:20:00 Port Scanning by Names 4:25:00 Mixed Port Scanning Techniques 4:30:00 Port Range and Open Status 4:35:00 Port Knocking Techniques 4:40:00 Fast Scan Profiles 4:45:00 Saving Output to Files 4:50:00 Sequential Port Scanning 4:55:00 Top Ports Scanning 5:00:00 Port Ratio Scan 5:05:00 Service Detection Basics 5:10:00 Light vs Aggressive Service Detection 5:15:00 Service Version Trace 5:20:00 Operating System Detection 5:25:00 OS Scan Limit and Tries 5:30:00 SMB OS Discovery Script 5:35:00 Normal and XML Output 5:40:00 XML to HTML Conversion 5:45:00 XML to CSV for Recon 5:50:00 Grapable Output Format 5:55:00 Script Kiddie Output Format 6:00:00 Saving All Output Formats 6:05:00 NMAP Scripting Engine NSE 6:10:00 Getting Help with NSE Scripts 6:15:00 Using Script Arguments 6:20:00 Brute Force Scripts FTP 6:25:00 Wildcard Script Execution 6:30:00 Updating NSE Database 6:35:00 Safe and Default Scripts 6:40:00 Vulnerability Scan Scripts 6:45:00 DOSS Attack Scripts 6:50:00 Exploit Script Category 6:55:00 Intrusive and Malware Scripts 7:00:00 Excluding Script Types 7:02:30 Boolean Expression Scans 7:04:00 Python NMAP and Zenmap Overview 7:05:51 Video End 🔔 Subscribe for more cybersecurity tutorials and hit the bell icon to stay updated on our latest courses. #nmap #cybersecurity #ethicalhacking #networking #penetrationtesting
