Open-source vulnerability scanner for identifying network security weaknesses using Nmap, Scapy, and automated penetration testing
PythonNmapScapyDockerLinux
The Problem
Security teams need fast, reliable tools to identify vulnerabilities across networks without expensive commercial solutions. Manual penetration testing is time-consuming and inconsistent.
The Approach
Built an open-source vulnerability scanner using Nmap for port scanning and service detection, Scapy for packet crafting and network analysis, and automated penetration testing techniques. Modular architecture allows easy extension with custom vulnerability checks.
The Impact
Validated on 5+ enterprise/academic networks. Open-sourced under Apache 2.0 license with 2 GitHub stars. Actively maintained and used by security researchers.
