Scanning the Internet with Nmap (Defcon 16) Tutorial Scanning The Internet With Nmap (Defcon 16) Description: How would you like to scan millions of hosts on the Internet and catalog all the interesting insights? This is exactly what Fyodor, the author of Nmap or Network Mapper did last summer. Thankfully, he then went on to share his finding with the community at Defcon 16 in his talk titled "Nmap: Scanning the Internet". In this talk Fyodor demos many of the new features he has added in Nmap lately including but not limited to - optimizing the host discovery process using TCP and UDP techniques, finding most used TCP and UDP ports on the Internet and inside Intranets of large corporations, packet rate control with a minimum and maximum setting, the pack trace option, ncat - which is a netcat clone and ndiff which allows one to diff between different scan dumps. The slides for the presentation are available here and a high resolution video can be downloaded here.
