Course
Data management, network and vulnerability scanning
This course will show students how to use Metasploit's built-in support for databases and workspaces to keep organized during a penetration test.
Course description
This course explores Metasploit and data organization during a pentest. We will cover network and vulnerability scanning via auxiliary modules that identify open ports and listening services, run a Nessus vulnerability scan via Metasploit and how to import data from third-party tools like Nmap into the Database. We will also show basic database usage and some time-saving tips and tricks along the way.

Penetration Testing with Metasploit - 2 - Data Management, Network and Vulnerability Scanning Lab
Lab - 00:30:00
In this lab, students will apply what they learned in the second course 'Data Management, network and vulnerability scanning with Metasploit' and perform the following tasks:- Students will use Metasploit's built-in support for databases and work spaces to keep organized during a Penetration test.- Manually manage data in the database by adding and removing data.- Run network scans against Linux and Windows targets that will automatically update the database.- Import data from 3rd party tools like Nmap into the database.- Use db_nmap for vulnerability scanning with automatic database updating.- Use wmap for web application vulnerability scanning without the need for a web browser, all from within the framework.
