This project demonstrates a basic network reconnaissance process using Nmap in Kali Linux. The objective of the test was to identify active hosts, open ports, and running services within a target system.
The scanning process included host discovery, full port scanning, service version detection, and operating system detection. The results revealed several open ports such as SSH (22), HTTP (80), and SMB (445), which could potentially expose the system to security risks if not properly configured.
The project highlights how penetration testers gather information about target systems and analyze exposed services that might lead to vulnerabilities.
