NMAP Basics Tutorial for Kali Linux Beginners - Cyber Security

If you are new to infosec, cyber security, and pen-testing, the way I explain the basic stuff about network scanning, info gathering, and Nmap is unlike other beginner tutorials. I keep this simple and useful, with lots of tidbit opportunities for learning.

Also, this is the real deal, exactly how pen-testers and ethical hackers use NMAP to do reconnaissance in cyber security.
Techniques that I use during this tutorial include Footprinting, Host Discovery, Scanning, and Enumeration. Using these techniques in cohesion helps an ethical hacker enrich their understanding of the target, using this knowledge to help tailor their penetration test to be successful.
This video tutorial was created for absolute beginners to give context behind the basic commands of Nmap and its usage. Would you like me to add anything further to my videos to make them more comprehensive? I welcome all your feedback to grow my channel.

[@Cesarche01752]

Very good 👍

[@GetCyber]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@Piiraaa]

what i dont understand is how will a system, pc or server or whatever react to these scans ? im even afraid of scanning my self because i might mistype my ip address and scan accidently another system who call the cops on me lol..i see a lot of videos how scans work but isnt there some work to do before you start? something to hide your ip ? something like vpn ? or chain vpn thing or something like that ?. great video by the way thx for that

[@rawkfist-ih6nk]

Most likely it’s not reported at all. Might be logged but currently working for one of the largest companies in the world, I can tell you someone scanning the external IP may raise an alert but it’s going to be among thousands of the same alert and they’re not going to take the time to try to track down every IP. If anything most SOC teams probably assumed they’re spoofed anyway so they’re concerned about threats in the network more than someone scanning their system

[@jameswilliams-nw3lq]

Thanks!

[@GetCyber]

Amazing. Thank you so much!

[@Engsfscrypto]

Really you are very good teacher ,plz go school or university or make series lecture plz we need more help ,

[@hulk2406]

[@ansar954]

Will u make c complete tutorial on cyber security becoz after watching this me and my friend are requesting to upload a free tutorial of cyber security on this channel 🙏

[@rajawaleed1658]

please make nmap in depth series waiting for your reply

[@juanochoa6489]

Does nmap only work on networks or websites too ?

[@allahnawaz1806]

how can i see the IP addresses of other routers are connected to the server to which my router is connected in kali linux

[@jeoi]

"-sP" Is Depreciated, Use "-sn" For A Quick PING Scan With Nmap.

[@GetCyber]

Good catch! Thank you so much for your feedback. Much appreciated 🙏🏽

[@belingamikael7940]

Hi Dan.. have a question about cat(cmd) can i used ===> cat Desktop/nmap-list.txt=====< cmd on ubuntu

[@GetCyber]

cat is not the same as cmd. cat only displays the contents of a file on the terminal. Do cat --help to see more info.

[@SXND5587]

i open the terminal but theres no code called sudo su im trying to do it right but always im just failing in it

[@mahdihasan42]

wow.

[@ansar954]

I,m unable to access some commands

[@AgborGordon]

thanks for this video I learned a lot. please can you help with a link or site that i can get more knowledge on kali Linux, python and some programming languages?. i can also appreciate payable online course sites to get a better hacking knowledge and certifications.

[@mrelite294]

look on youtube u got other videos that help u

[@Franziko-xh]

I think you would want to start with gaining some knowledge through Tryhackme, and as the other guy said there's plenty of other videos on KZbin that explains stuff on hacking and kali Linux for beginners well.

[@4runnerdiego]

I like to have a list of commands to do PEN TESTING

[@joelie8897]

hallo there, i got problem at cat desktop/nmap-list.txt it say No such file or directory, can you help me

[@danghugn4924]

he got already a file is nmap-list.txt but I do not have that one. that file is his c heat-sheet

[@Pwnagotchi-0]

If I am running “whoami” on kali Linux and someone is running nmap will I still leave packets?

[@GetCyber]

Yes you will still leave packets but they will be masked. Give it a try and let me know how it goes. This is a very interesting question!

[@Engsfscrypto]

Plz if have u website or page let me to know , want to buy your lecture thanks sir

[@unitedhindu403]

😭... If I run command cat Desktop/nmap-list.txt.... It's showing no such file or directory....pls can someone help me...that means a lot🥺

[@GetCyber]

You need to be on /home/[USER]/Desktop when doing the nmap. The apply the switch -oG ./nmap-list.txt. ( ./ is your current directory) Also you may have to do the nmap using sudo. I hope this helps!

[@Naveenbabuborugadda]

Same problem can you explain it clearly Get cyber???

[@Naveenbabuborugadda]

​@@GetCyberbro same issue please explain it clearly.

[@fredrickOdongo-pj3xo]

i dint understand cheat sheet side.

[@saidibrahim5931]

this is the best Nmap i saw on youtube, but the cheat-sheets is not there after I opened the link, I don't know why you wasting people's time for a cheat-sheet is not on the link

[@gersoncommunityseller]

can someone past the code here? \

[@1734-Jason]

Nmap is easy

[@xxdaaaaaxx2109]

man the cheat sheet is not working

[@chubpone]

Looks like cheat sheet is down

[@GetCyber]

Yes. I changed my domain. Thanks for letting me know. I’ll update the URLs. Here’s the new page: danduran.me/nmap-cheat-1/

[@secureitup]

@@GetCyber Is is down again? Can't access new link. Cause that code is giving back errors.

[@2684dennis]

14:17 when i type cat Desktop/nmap-list.txt........ i get this back..... cat: Desktop/nmap-list.txt: No such file or directory...... i try to make this file and repeat but nothing happends, what am i doing wrong? thanks (meanwhile i figured it out, i made a text file with that script, and it runs now) :)

[@dduoi]

wait what i have the same issue but i dont understand how to fix it

[@2684dennis]

@@dduoi In your Desktop directory you have to make a textfile named nmap-list.txt and put in the script: | awk '/is up/ {print up};{gsub(/\(||)/,);up=}' And be aware you have to put one empty space afther your final ending quote, other it doesnt work.

[@seanknight9808]

Hey bud, I added you on LinkedIn and facebook.

[@iuriesavciuc9001]

cat Desktop/nmap-list.txt cat : Desktop/nmap-list.txt: No such file or directory i can't understand why, or i have to create this file by myself and type in there this script?

[@GetCyber]

It seems like the file "nmap-list.txt" doesn't exist in the specified directory. You might want to double-check the file path or create the file yourself and add the necessary script.
