Assets and Topology: Vulnerability Analysis
In this lab, you'll focus on Asset Management. Asset Management ensures an organization’s assets are accounted for, maintained, and eventually disposed of. Over the next few challenges, you'll focus on scalable ways to approach Asset Management (and Vulnerability Management). You'll also witness how Asset Management can help you investigate suspicious behavior.

Nmap: Host Inventory Analysis
In this challenge, you'll imagine you’re a Security Analyst at Globomantics Inc. Over the past few days, Globomantics’ System Administrators have reported strange activity. In particular, certain systems are turning off at “random times.” To make matters even more peculiar, the issue is occurring in a subnet that has servers dedicated to security monitoring (i.e., a SIEM server, etc.). Your job is to create a network baseline (through nmap) so you can investigate future changes to the network.

OpenVAS: Open-box Vulnerability Testing
In this challenge, you'll leverage the OpenVAS scanner (within the Greenbone security suite) to do a open-box test of the SIEM.
