# Introduction In this lab, you will learn how to use Nmap and Metasploit for network scanning and vulnerability analysis. Nmap (Network Mapper) is a powerful open-source utility for network discovery and security auditing, while Metasploit is a widely used penetration testing framework that includes a variety of exploitation tools and payloads. The goal of this lab is to provide you with hands-on experience in using Nmap to perform various types of scans, analyzing the results, and leveraging Metasploit to further explore potential vulnerabilities on a target system.
