This project’s main goal is to create a web-based interface for conducting port scans on target IP addresses, using both a frontend developed using React.js and a backend API built with Flask. Our implementation utilizes Flask to create a web application that enables users to perform port scans through a simple HTTP API. The core of the application is a port scanning function written in Python, which leverages the socket module to establish connections to target ports. The Flask app exposes an endpoint /scan-ports, which accepts POST requests containing JSON data specifying the target IP address, port range, and timeout. Upon receiving a request, the app invokes the port scanning function, performs the scan, and returns the results as JSON.
- Quickly identifies open ports on a target system.
- Essential for network security assessment.
- Helps in identifying potential vulnerabilities.
- Retrieves domain registration and availability information.
- Provides details on domain ownership and registrar.
- Useful for cybersecurity analysis and intellectual property management.
- Clone the repository to your local machine:
git clone https://github.com/JulianAlbert12/NetVision
- Navigate to the project directory:
cd NetVision
- Install dependencies:
npm install react-scripts
- Run the flask server:
cd src/backend/
python3 app.py
- On a separate terminal, run project:
npm start

TCP Scanner
When following the instructions your input should look like this image below. If you get a red text error, restart the flask server. Any incorrect IP or URL will have a dedicated error message on the screen.
Once you fill out the inputs you should see a loading icon like this:
