From explaining port scanning basics for novices to detailing low-level packet crafting methods used by advanced hackers, this book by Nmap's original author suits all levels of security and networking professionals. The reference guide documents every Nmap feature and option, while the remainder demonstrates how to apply them to quickly solve real-world tasks. Examples and diagrams show actual communication on the wire. Topics include subverting firewalls and intrusion detection systems, optimizing Nmap performance, and automating common networking tasks with the Nmap Scripting Engine.

Review: An excellent source on NMAP - directly from the horse's mouth - nmap is a well-used component of my IT toolbox. I use it primarily for self-discovery (no, not THAT sort of 'self-discovery') - to check my network perimeter, to check the security model inside my network, to figure out who's doing what on my wire, etc. - but I always knew that I was taking advantage of only a small part of its potential. Lyon's book provides a detailed and informative presentation to nmap and its many uses in the professional IT arsenal. While, a fair bit of the material can be gleaned from a wide-assortment of sources on the net (somewhere in those tubes) - including from Lyon's own site, [...] - this book coalesces and distills the material into a tight, cohesive and entertaining presentation with added tidbits that only the author of such a powerful tool might know. And since, like any good tool, using nmap can be dangerous w/o a good user manual, this book provides the need-to-know information for efficient use of nmap. Hell, even if the book sucked, the guy has done such a valuable service by providing this free, open-source tool it seems only fitting that we throw him a couple of bucks for all of his effort. But the book rocks, so it's a two-fer: good-info AND smug feeling of satisfaction that $$ is well spent on someone who actually did something. So: If you want to be in the know you need this book. If you want to know what is on your network you need this book. If you want to keep ahead of those damned script-kiddies you need this book. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #157,858 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #16 in Computer Networking (Books) #33 in CompTIA Certification Guides #81 in Computer Network Security | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 480 Reviews | ## Images ![Nmap Network Scanning: The Official Nmap Project Guide to Network Discovery and Security Scanning - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81qOGh5yCSL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderfull!!! *by D***Z on February 7, 2026* Classic position, Must-have for everyone who work in IT. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An excellent source on NMAP - directly from the horse's mouth *by S***R on May 3, 2009* nmap is a well-used component of my IT toolbox.

I could simply state that if you're going to use nmap, you need this book. However, for people like me who are just getting started in the world of ethical vulnerability and penetration testing, I needed something comprehensive, complete, and not too "over my head." The author (and his team who he clearly acknowledges in the Introduction) have done a superior job in the writing of this book; the actual writing style is so easy to read and understand. The author takes great care in identifying and acknowledging the various skill set of his potential readers. He provides scenarios, case studies, examples, and detailed descriptions that people like me need and enjoy. He also provides charts, screen prints, and a reference manual for people who want to use this book as a reference only. I am reading this book cover to cover and will be buying my second copy today to keep at my office. Reading this book is like having a discussion with the book's author and since the author also developed the nmap program, I can't think of a better person to learn nmap from.
