About Nmap

Nmap was created in 1997 by Gordon Lyon, also known as Fyodor. It was developed to assist network administrators and security professionals in discovering devices, identifying services, and detecting vulnerabilities within networks.

Nmap's strengths include comprehensive network scanning, flexibility with various scanning techniques, and a robust scripting engine. Weaknesses involve a steep learning curve for new users and potential detection by intrusion detection systems. Competitors include OpenVAS, Nessus, and Metasploit.
