We've released Npcap version 1.82 with VLAN tagging, improved performance, and more! It will make the upcoming Nmap release even better: seclists.org/nmap-announce/2…
The Nmap Project mourns the passing of our friend and legendary hacker Kevin Mitnick. He helped inspire my (Fyodor's) passion for network security, as well as Nmap features such as the TCP Initial Sequence Number predictability report. Later we worked together on the hacking novel "Stealing the Network: How to Own a Continent". Here's a fun pic from our 2004 HOPE Conference book signing. Rest in peace, @kevinmitnick.
This is my love-letter to @nmap, which most certainly changed the course of my life, and probably yours, too.
1997 was a pretty magical year for infosec, nmap being chief among the reasons.
Happy 25th scan-iversary, #Nmap! 🎉 September 1, 1997 was the day Fyodor's Nmap was released to the world. Check out a quick blog post from Rapid7 Director of Research, @todb on the impact of 25 years of Nmap: r-7.co/3cyJh6s

The third edition of "Nmap: Network Exploration and Security Auditing Cookbook is out today. Most of the things I've learned about Nmap in past years are scattered throughout the book. RTs and Amazon reviews are super appreciated :) amazon.com/Network-Explorati…#nmap
Global pandemic may keep some of us home from @defcon, but it can't stop our traditional Defcon release! Nmap 7.92 details: seclists.org/nmap-announce/2…
We're pleased to release Npcap 1.30 with better performance (especially for Wireshark) and better raw WiFi capture. Enjoy! seclists.org/nmap-announce/2…
Google Chrome has been blocking Nmap downloads all day because their broken "Safe Browsing" system suddenly labeled a 10-year-old version of our Ncat software as a threat. We will get this resolved with Google, but wanted to let you know that your Nmap downloads are still safe!
Last week Google Chrome wrongfully blocked a 24-year-old tarball of L0phtcrack source code from our historical archives as "malware". That one has been fixed, but it's still frustrating when Big Tech companies block content so carelessly.
