TryHackMe Cyborg — Enumeration

As per usual, we start by running a port scan on the host using nmap. The sC and sV flags indicate that basic vulnerability scripts are executed against the target and that the port scan tries to find version information.

The answers to the first three questions can be found in this output. First, there are 2 open ports. Second, the service running on port 22 is SSH. Third, the service running on port 80 is HTTP. Browsing to: http://cyborg.thm/ gives us the following page:

#1: Scan the machine, how many ports are open?

Answer: 2

#2: What service is running on port 22?

Answer: SSH
