We kicked off this challenge with asking you to go ahead and do a basic scan on
192.168.0.1.
So let's walk through it and see if we did it the same way. There are many
different ways to
squeeze juice out of this cat here and we're going to go ahead and click on new
scan,
then move back over again and I'm going to go with a basic network scan.
I'm going to name this one a single scan and I'm going to identify the target
of 192.168.0.1
and I'm not going to change anything else about this because I want to be able
to go ahead and
run this with the basic settings that we have just to see if it'll run. I'm
going to go ahead
and go straight to launch and then wait for this to finish up and then we'll
take a look at it
once that finishes. Here I'm back and just like that we're done with the scan
already.
Let's go in and take a look at our results. This one took 11 minutes and there
must be something
about it that we're going to learn about later on as the course develops and
unfolds.
If we go inside the vulnerability tab we can see that there are four
vulnerabilities.
Well that was really up under the summary because there were three mediums and
one low
but if we go inside the vulnerability we can move over to the right and we do
have a CDSS
score as far as it basically goes and the information is stated to that and you
can see the different
steps that was taken if you go through each of these lines for info and then
also get
information concerning the vulnerabilities that were found like this one was a
CDSS 5.3
and the other one was a 3.3 and we'll discuss later on how some of these may
have a lower number
but be more important and vice versa. It's good for us to be able to install
Nesys and be able to do some quick configurations run some basic scans but it's
more important for
us to be able to go through as the course unfolds to discover more
vulnerabilities on those
individual systems out there so that way we can exploit them and as we start
moving into the
next couple of skills we may be coming back and forth to Dessus along with
other a couple of scanning
vulnerability assessment tools to go do some active scanning as we've done
throughout this
because as you can see through those different reports that those
vulnerabilities that are coming
up are actually going to the system and making an assessment on there. We'll
get in the next skill
we'll take a look at how this really wreaks havoc on the network and can
potentially get us caught.
I hope this has been informative for you and I'd like to thank you for viewing.
