Mass Scan Cheat-Sheet​

A Mass Scan Cheat-Sheet provides quick references for performing mass scanning of IP addresses and networks, often used for security assessments and penetration testing. Key tools and techniques include:

1. Nmap: Use for scanning large networks with commands like nmap -p 1-65535 -T4 -A -v <target> to scan all ports with service detection.
2. Masscan: A faster alternative to Nmap, using masscan -p 80,443 <target> to scan common ports.
3. ZMap: For large-scale internet scanning, using zmap -p 80 <target> for scanning HTTP ports.
4. Shodan: A search engine for finding devices connected to the internet. Use it to identify exposed services across vast networks.

Best Practices:

• Ensure you have proper authorization before scanning.
• Limit scan rates to avoid network disruption.
• Use scanning tools responsibly, respecting privacy and legal guidelines.
