Downloading Nmap
Nmap and Zenmap (the graphical front end) are available inseveral versions and formats. Recent source releases and binarypackages are described below. Older version (and sometimes newer testreleases) are available from the dist directory(and really old ones are in dist-old).For the moresecurity-paranoid (smart) users, GPG detached signatures and SHA-1hashes for each release are available in the sigsdirectory (verification instructions). Before downloading, be sure to read the relevant sections for your platform from the Nmap Install Guide. The mostimportant changes (features, bugfixes, etc) in each Nmap version aredescribed in the Changelog. Using Nmap is covered in the Reference Guide, and don't forget to readthe other available documentation, particularly the new book Nmap Network Scanning!
Nmap users are encouraged to subscribe to the Nmap-hackersmailing list. It is a low volume (7 posts in 2015), moderated listfor the most important announcements about Nmap, Insecure.org, andrelated projects. You can join the 128,953 current subscribers (as ofSeptember 2017) by submitting your email address here:
You can also get updates from our Facebook and Twitter pages.
Nmap is distributed with source code under custom license terms similar to (and derived from) the GNUGeneral Public License, as noted in the copyright page.
Microsoft Windows binaries
Please readthe Windows section of theInstall Guide for limitations and installation instructions for theWindows version of Nmap. You can choosefrom a self-installer (includes dependencies and also the Zenmap GUI)or the much smaller command-line zip file version. We support Nmap on Windows 7 and newer, as well as Windows Server 2008 and newer. We also maintain a guide for userswho must run Nmap on earlier Windows releases..
The Nmap executable Windows installer can handle Npcapinstallation, registry performance tweaks, and decompressing theexecutables and data files into your preferred location. It also includes the Zenmap graphical frontend. Skip all thecomplexity of the Windows zip files with a self-installer:
Latest stable release self-installer: nmap-7.91-setup.exe
We have written post-install usageinstructions. Please notify usif you encounter any problems or have suggestions for theinstaller.
For those who prefer the command-line zip files (Installation Instructions; UsageInstructions), they are still available. The Zenmap graphicalinterface is not included with these, so you need to runnmap.exe from a DOS/command window. Oryou can download and install a superior command shell such as thoseincluded with the free Cygwin system.Also, you need to run the Npcapand Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Packageinstallers which are included in the zip file. The main advantage is that these zip files are a fraction of the size of the executable installer:
Latest stable command-line zipfile:nmap-7.91-win32.zip
Linux RPM Source and Binaries
Many popular Linux distributions (Redhat, Mandrake, Suse, etc) usethe RPM package management system forquick and easy binary package installation. We havewritten a detailed guide toinstalling our RPM packages, though these simple commands usually dothe trick:You can also download and install the RPMs yourself:
Latest stable release:
x86-64 (64-bit Linux)Nmap RPM: nmap-7.91-1.x86_64.rpm
x86-64 (64-bit Linux)Ncat RPM: ncat-7.91-1.x86_64.rpm
x86-64 (64-bit Linux)Nping RPM: nping-0.7.91-1.x86_64.rpm
Optional Zenmap GUI (all platforms): zenmap-7.91-1.noarch.rpm
Source RPM (includes Nmap, Zenmap, Ncat, and Nping): nmap-7.91-1.src.rpm
x86-64 (64-bit Linux)Nmap RPM: nmap-7.91-1.x86_64.rpm
x86-64 (64-bit Linux)Ncat RPM: ncat-7.91-1.x86_64.rpm
x86-64 (64-bit Linux)Nping RPM: nping-0.7.91-1.x86_64.rpm
Optional Zenmap GUI (all platforms): zenmap-7.91-1.noarch.rpm
Source RPM (includes Nmap, Zenmap, Ncat, and Nping): nmap-7.91-1.src.rpm
Mac OS X Binaries
Nmap binaries for Mac OS X (Intel x86) are distributed as a disk image filecontaining an installer. The installer allows installing Nmap, Zenmap,Ncat, and Ndiff. The programs have been tested on Intel computersrunning Mac OS X 10.8 and later. See theMac OS X Nmap installpage for more details. Users of PowerPC (PPC) Mac machines, which Apple ceased selling in 2006, should see this page instead for support information.
Latest stable release installer: nmap-7.91.dmg
Latest stable release installer: nmap-7.91.dmg
Source Code Distribution
This is the traditional compile-it-yourself format. The Nmaptarball compiles under Linux, Mac OS X, Windows, and many UNIXplatforms (Solaris, Free/Net/OpenBSD, etc.) It includes Zenmap, theGUI frontend.
Detailed Linux/BSD/Solaris compilation instructions and options are provided here, though this usually does the trick:
Most Windows users install with our Windows executable installer, but we also provide Windows source code compilation instructions.
Most Mac OS X users install with our Mac installer, but we also provide Mac OS X source code compilation instructions.
If you are compiling Nmap anyway, you might prefer to get the very latest code from our SVN source code repository rather than downloading a tarball here.
Latest stable Nmap release tarball: nmap-7.91.tar.bz2 (or gzip compressed)
Other Operating Systems
Many other operating systems support Nmap so well that I have no needto create and distribute binary packages myself. You can choose touse the packages below, or compile the sourcedistribution, which is often newer. We have created installation pages for the following platforms:
Linux (all distributions)
Microsoft Windows
Mac OS X
FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and NetBSD
Sun Solaris
Amiga, HP-UX, and Other Platforms

Nessus is Openvas’ father, it is not free anymore (that’s why OpenVas was created) and i’ll write this tutorial using the Free Trial version of Nessus Professional for Ubuntu and show you how to install Nessus and get started with its usage.
Acquiring Nessus:
Click here to access the Nessus’ website to get the trial code to install Nessus.
Fill the form to get your trial code by email, click on the “Download and install” link.
After returning to Nessus’ page you can select the proper version for your test, I’m using Ubuntu 16.4 therefore I’ll download Nessus-7.0.2-ubuntu1110_amd64.deb. Select your version, accept the license terms and download.
Installing Nessus
Installing Nessus is very easy, specially if you have read our tutorial on DPKG packages manager.
Run:
And after the installation is done follow the instructions by running:
Your terminal should show very similar results to the following:
Following Nessus’ installation instructions lets go to: https://YOURPCNAME:8443 (change YOURPCNOW for your computer’s name, works with localhost too).
When opening the Web interface, a SSL error may appear
Just add an exception and continue accessing:
Finally we’ll meet Nessus’ screen, login using “admin” both as user and password.
In the next screen select the use you’ll give to Nessus and put the trial code you got by e-mail.
After filling everything Nessus will start initializing as shown in the next image, this step may take about 20 or 30 minutes, after finishing the next screen will be:
In this screen we’ll intuitively select “create new scan”, Nessus will ask you what kind of scan you want, lets choose Advanced scan, the first option:
Now a form will ask for the information about our target:
Fill it freely, pay attention to write a proper target’s address,click on save and lets check the rest of options:
Discovery Host
ARP: This option is useful only within local networks and will use the mac address instead of the IP address.
TCP: TCP will ping using TCP protocol instead of ICMP protocol.
ICMP: Normal ping to discover hosts.
Assume ICMP unreachable from the gateway means the host is down: If chosen, Nessus will consider targets which don’t reply to ping as offline.
ICMP: Normal ping to discover hosts.
Assume ICMP unreachable from the gateway means the host is down: If chosen, Nessus will consider targets which don’t reply to ping as offline.
Below in this window there is the UDP option too (the screenshot didn’t cover it).
In order to understand the differences between the protocols mentioned I encourage you to read the Nmap tutorial which includes an introduction to the protocols.
Port Scanning
In this section you can edit all ports settings, port ranges, etc.
SSH (Netstat): This option will work only if you provide login credentials. Nessus will run the netstat command from the target system to discover open ports.
WMI (Netstat): Same as above using a Windows application, this option will work only against a Windows target (while the SSH only on Linux systems).
SNMP: Scan through SNMP protocol.
Verify open TCP ports found by local port enumerators:checks if ports locally opened are reachable remotely too.

Network Port Scanners: You can choose the intensity of the scan
Service Discovery
Probe all ports to find services: This option will try to find the service of each scanned port.
SSL: This is about checking the SSL safety. Many SSL vulnerabilities were reported but I don’t know about any which was really exploited remotely, and if I’m not wrong safe SSLs can be tricked with sniffers in local networks, I would ignore this.

ASSESMENT
Bruteforce: will try to bruteforce credentials, this option allows to integrate Hydra.
SCADA:
Web Applications:Allows us to scan websites including crawling, SQL check and a lot more.
Windows: Use this option for Windows targets.
Malware (again): Will scan for malwares.

REPORT
This section specifies how we’ll handle results, you can choose a variety of options which wont affect the scan itself, you can choose to show targets by IP or domain name, editable properties of the reports and more.
ADVANCED
Safe Check: Nessus will perform a less aggressive scan collecting information through banner grabbing (information unintentionally provided by the target’s system, NOT PISHING).
Performance Options: Here we can define how many vulnerabilities can Nessus check simultaneously, or how many targets, or the timing interval.

LAUNCHING THE SCAN
Save the configuration you decided before and the next screen will prompt:
Select your scan and then click on More (right side on the site’s top) and “LAUNCH” and when asked, confirm the launch by clicking on the blue button “Launch”
Nessus will start scanning:
After it finishes, click on your scan and a window showing the results’ quantity will appear, click on the colored bar to see the results.
