Notes on Usage

  • Naabu allows arbitrary binary execution as a feature to support nmap integration.
  • Naabu is designed to scan ports on multiple hosts / mass port scanning.
  • Naabu is configured by default with that assumption that you are running it from VPS.
  • We suggest tuning the flags / rate if running Naabu from local system.
  • For best results, run Naabu as root user.
