This script automates the process of running an Nmap scan and generating a readable HTML report. The report is then opened in Firefox for easy viewing. This is useful for analyzing a system's open ports(Well Known), services, and potential vulnerabilities.
Copy the script into a file named nmap_scan.sh.
Run the following command to make the script executable:
chmod +x nmap_scan.sh
./nmap_scan.sh <target>
This script is intended for authorized security assessments only. Ensure you have explicit permission to scan any target system before using this tool. Unauthorized scanning may violate laws and regulations, and the user is solely responsible for any misuse of the script. Use it ethically and responsibly.
This script simplifies the process of security scanning, making it accessible even for beginners. For more information about Nmap, visit official Nmap website.
