## Quick Reference

### Common Port Scans

```bash
# Quick scan
nmap -F 192.168.1.1

# Full comprehensive
nmap -sV -sC -A -p- 192.168.1.1

# Fast with version
nmap -sV -T4 192.168.1.1
```

### Password Hash Types

| Mode | Type |
|------|------|
| 0 | MD5 |
| 100 | SHA1 |
| 1000 | NTLM |
| 1800 | sha512crypt |
| 3200 | bcrypt |
| 13100 | Kerberoast |

## Constraints

- Always have written authorization
- Some scans are noisy and detectable
- Brute forcing may lock accounts
- Rate limiting affects tools

## Examples

### Example 1: Quick Vulnerability Scan

```bash
nmap -sV --script vuln 192.168.1.1
```

### Example 2: Web App Test

```bash
nikto -h http://target && sqlmap -u "http://target/page?id=1" --dbs
```

## Troubleshooting

| Issue | Solution |
|-------|----------|
| Scan too slow | Increase timing (-T4, -T5) |
| Ports filtered | Try different scan types |
| Exploit fails | Check target version compatibility |
| Passwords not cracking | Try larger wordlists, rules |
