Nmap ("Network Mapper") is a utility for network discovery and security auditing.
Besides basic network discovery and port scanning, Nmap has a builtin scripting
engine (NSE). With this
scripting engine more complex network tasks can be created. The Nmap
installation comes with a wide variety of scripts (/usr/share/nmap/scripts).
The scripts can be applied for each host or service found during network
discovery, or before and after the scan.
OpenSSH supports FIDO2 hardware keys for additional protection. The private key
is securely stored on hardware. The file in the ~/.ssh/ directory contains
only the credential id with other non-sensitive meta-data.
In this series the concept of containerization is presented by looking at the mechanisms behind the scenes. Before modern concepts like cgroups etc. are described, the main idea behind bundling an execution environment is introduced by using a chroot environment.
Distributions based on Ubuntu have
brltty enabled by default. Some braille

some solutions to this problem are presented.
