One of the ways to assess the security of any computer system is to scan its communication ports to see which are open, listening and protected. If one is found, it's possible that our security is compromised and with NmapWin we'll be able to audit them.

Once configured, it is possible to discover servers, carry out pings, identify ports, get to know the services that are being carried out on remote machines or determine the operating system that is being used. Data that can be very useful when it comes to improving its security, or for taking advantage of its vulnerabilities...
