Day 6 of my eJPT prep 🔐

Today, networking concepts finally started connecting with real Nmap scans… and everything made more sense 👇🧵

@lostsec_ Bro are you gonna drop the links to these skills files for us too 😅, or are they locked behind the bug bounty boss level? 😭

⚡ Nmap Scripting Engine
Automation is powerful - but also easier to detect.

Day 6 done ✅
What Nmap command helped you understand scanning the most?

🚪 Port Scanning & Service Detection
Every scan tells a story about the network.

Open ports = potential attack surface.

Biggest lesson from Day 5 👇

Most weaknesses start with exposed information, not advanced attacks.

Hands-on labs hit different 🔐

What was your first CTF like?

Day 5 of my eJPT prep 🔐

Completed a hands-on CTF focused on website reconnaissance, and honestly, recon feels more like investigation than hacking 👇🧵

🌐 Website Mirroring

Mirroring the site helped uncover hidden files that normal browsing missed.

Recon = patience.

⚡ Nmap Scripting Engine (NSE)

Automation + reconnaissance = powerful combo.
However, it is also easier for defenders to detect.

Day 4 ✅
What’s your favorite Nmap flag?

[AV @TheModernHacker]

🧠 Started with Networking Fundamentals

• OSI Model
• TCP vs UDP
• ICMP behavior

Scanning makes way more sense once you understand protocols.

🚪 Port Scanning & Service Detection

• Open ports
• Running services
• OS fingerprinting

Every open port = potential entry point.

Day 4 of my eJPT prep 🔐

Today I realized Nmap isn’t just port scanning, it’s about understanding how networks think. 👇🧵

Key lesson from Day 3 👇

Active recon is powerful, but detectable.
Good security teams don’t just block attacks; they see them early.

Day 3 ✅
What’s the first scan you learned to recognize?

Day 3 of eJPT prep 🔐

Shifted from passive recon to Active Information Gathering - where scans get noisy, and defenders should start paying attention 👇🧵

🚪 Port Scanning with Nmap

• Open ports
• Running services
• Potential entry points

This is where alerts should trigger in a SOC.
