Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Assignment:**
- After installing Nmap,
- Launch “Command Prompt” by typing “cmd” in “start> run”
- Enter into C:\program files\nmap\, which should be the default directory for your installation
- Enter command “nmap -P0 -O -A” an IP address or a domain name, and wait for a few minutes to see the results; Here “-P0” means scan all ports; “-O” helps you identify the OS running on the host computer; “-A” enables OS detection, version detection, script scanning, and traceroute. **Make sure there is a space between the command and the option as well as between options!**
- Use the same command above to scan a computer in your house and see the results – you may use domain name or IP address of the computer. For example, “nmap –P0 -O -A 192.168.0.1”
- If you can obtain agreement from a remote host owner, you may scan the host/server with its domain name or IP address.
**Please answer the following questions in your lab report**
1) Submit answers to the following questions based on the reports you generated.
a) Did you find any vulnerability with the computer you scanned?
b) What operating systems are running on the hosts you visited?
c) List several services running on each computer?
d) Identify one high severity vulnerability for each computer (if there is one). Describe the vulnerability and discuss control(s) to minimize the risk from the vulnerability.
