📦 Deliverables

🎯 Problem Statement

Junior security analysts needed a free, simple network scanner that did not require buying Nessus.

🛠️ What I Built

A Python tool using nmap and scapy that scans a subnet, fingerprints devices, flags open risky ports, and exports an HTML report with remediation tips.

🔥 Challenges I Faced

Handling scan timeouts on large subnets and presenting results readably.

💡 What I Learned

Async scanning, OS fingerprinting heuristics, and templating professional reports.

🚀 Future Improvements

CVE enrichment via NVD API, scheduled scanning, and SIEM export.
