Single Host Port Scans

Single Host Port Scan Templates

Scan Templates can include variables such as %tip% to insert your Target IP / Hostname.

Template Variables

Level Up!

Scan a target and automatically import the results into your current Engagement using the PenTest.WS API. The %apikey% variable will be replaced with your API key once you have confirmed your account password.

Do not put your API key directly into templates!

nmap -sC -sV -oA tcp -vv %tip% && curl -X POST "https://pentest.ws/api/v1/e/%eid%/import/nmap" -H  "X-API-KEY: %apikey%" -F "file=@tcp.xml"

Subnet Port Scans

Subnet Port Scan Templates

Subnet Port Scans work similar to Single Host Port Scans, with the added field of a DNS Server to resolve hostnames from an IP address range. The Subnet field can be a single IP address (10.1.2.3), an IP range (10.1.2.100-140) or CIDR notation (10.1.2.0/24)
