OUTPUTS
A list of hosts, servers, and other network hardware on LAN
The operating systems and services on each host.
Services used by the host as identified by decrypted wireless network traffic.
Possible vulnerable services and practices.40
OPERATIONAL SECURITY
Clarify timing and seek permission with staff - some activities can tax the network or
cause disruptions.
Confirm that all devices you are accessing/scanning belong to the organization.
Delete all devices from your scan that do not belong to the organization.
Study outputs for any obviously embarrassing personal information (especially traffic
sniffing or personal devices connected to the network) before sharing.
Treat captured network traffic with the utmost security and empathetic
responsibility. They may contain very personal data, passwords, and more. These
should not be shared except in specific, intentional samples with anyone, including
the organization itself.
PREPARATION
Baseline Skills
Skill with using nmap/zenmap and its scripting options
Skill with Wireshark or other packet-capturing tool, as well as possibly more
advanced traffic interception tools.
