Nmap is used for network reconnaissance and exploitation of the slum tower network. It is even seen briefly in the movie's trailer. The command Nmap is widely used in the video game Hacknet, allowing to probe the network ports of a target system to hack it. In Snowden, Nmap is used in the aptitude test scene about 14 minutes into the movie.
netcat. netcat (often abbreviated to nc) is a computer networking utility for reading from and writing to network connections using TCP or UDP. The command is designed to be a dependable back-end that can be used directly or easily driven by other programs and scripts. At the same time, it is a feature-rich network debugging and investigation ...
TCP/IP stack fingerprinting. Passive OS Fingerprinting method and diagram. TCP/IP stack fingerprinting is the remote detection of the characteristics of a TCP/IP stack implementation. The combination of parameters may then be used to infer the remote machine's operating system (aka, OS fingerprinting), or incorporated into a device fingerprint.
hping is an open-source packet generator and analyzer for the TCP/IP protocol created by Salvatore Sanfilippo (also known as Antirez). It is one of the common tools used for security auditing and testing of firewalls and networks, and was used to exploit the idle scan scanning technique (also invented by the hping author), and now implemented in the Nmap Security Scanner.
Internet Printing Protocol. The Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) is a specialized communication protocol for communication between client devices (computers, mobile phones, tablets, etc.) and printers (or print servers). It allows clients to submit one or more print jobs to the network-attached printer or print server, and perform tasks such as ...
Ping sweep. In computing, a ping sweep is a method that can establish a range of IP addresses which map to live hosts. The classic tool used for ping sweeps is fping, [1] [2] [3] which traditionally was accompanied by gping to generate the list of hosts for large subnets, [4] although more recent versions of fping include that functionality. [1 ...
Command Prompt, also known as cmd.exe or cmd, is the default command-line interpreter for the OS/2, [1] eComStation, ArcaOS, Microsoft Windows (Windows NT family and Windows CE family), and ReactOS [2] operating systems. On Windows CE .NET 4.2, [3] Windows CE 5.0 [4] and Windows Embedded CE 6.0 [5] it is referred to as the Command Processor ...
When an idle scan is attempted, tools (for example nmap) tests the proposed zombie and reports any problems with it. If one doesn't work, try another. Enough Internet hosts are vulnerable that zombie candidates aren't hard to find. A common approach is to simply execute a ping sweep of some network. Choosing a network near your source address ...
