Nmap Scan Bash Script

This is a simple Bash script that helps you run nmap network scans by prompting you for the necessary inputs, such as target IP/hostname, scan type, and port range.

What is Nmap?

Nmap (Network Mapper) is a tool used for network discovery and security auditing. It helps identify open ports, running services, and the security status of hosts on a network.

Script Overview

This script makes it easier to use nmap by asking you to input:

• A target IP address or hostname.
• The type of scan you want to perform (e.g., SYN scan, UDP scan).
• An optional port range (e.g., ports 1-1000).

The script then runs the nmap command with these options and shows the results in the terminal.

How to Use

1. Make the Script Executable

First, download the script and make it executable by running:

chmod +x nmap_scan.sh
