Zenmap on Cloud For AWS

Zenmap is a cool for mapping a topology of devices connected to your network. This security scanner works off of Nmap, providing an interactive, animated visualisation of hosts on a network, configured in rings. Click on a host and it moves to the centre of your network topology, giving you the ability to easily trace the host’s various connections. With Zenmap, information regarding potential vulnerabilities becomes that much easier to pinpoint, ensuring your firewalls and routers are working correctly.

Zenmap is the official Nmap Security Scanner GUI. It is a multi-platform (Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, BSD, etc.) free and open source application which aims to make Nmap easy for beginners to use while providing advanced features for experienced Nmap users. Frequently used scans can be saved as profiles to make them easy to run repeatedly. A command creator allows interactive creation of Nmap command lines. Scan results can be saved and viewed later. Saved scan results can be compared with one another to see how they differ. The results of recent scans are stored in a searchable database.
