Overall Satisfaction with Nmap
It is being used in the IT department for network monitoring. It addresses a wide range of problems, testing device security, identifying unknown devices, and mapping the existing network.
- Network monitoring
- Port Scanning
- Service enumeration.
- It works perfectly as it is where features are concerned. If it is combined with Zenmap for those preferring a GUI, it's invaluable.
- It has saved days worth of work getting to know a moderate sized, undocumented network.
- It has helped identify configuration weaknesses allowing me to better secure machines and network devices containing client data.
Fing, Angry IP scanner, Advanced IP scanner, all great programs, however they all lacked the depth and customization that nmap scans provide. They provide a modicum of information in a much prettier package, but nmap delivers for depth and powerhouse information gathering.
