Our goal is not to get at the systems but to find all the ways to get there.
The difference here is that we start to see the components and aspects that are not visible at first glance with our experience.
our core task is not to exploit the machines but to find how they can be exploited.

→ The whole enumeration process is divided into three different levels:
| 1- Infrastructure-based enumeration | 2- Host-based enumeration | 3- OS-based enumeration |
|---|
These layers are designed as follows:
| Layer | Description | Information Categories |
|---|---|---|
1. Internet Presence |
Identification of internet presence and externally accessible infrastructure. | Domains, Subdomains, vHosts, ASN, Netblocks, IP Addresses, Cloud Instances, Security Measures |
2. Gateway |
Identify the possible security measures to protect the company's external and internal infrastructure. | Firewalls, DMZ, IPS/IDS, EDR, Proxies, NAC, Network Segmentation, VPN, Cloudflare |
3. Accessible Services |
Identify accessible interfaces and services that are hosted externally or internally. | Service Type, Functionality, Configuration, Port, Version, Interface |
4. Processes |
Identify the internal processes, sources, and destinations associated with the services. | PID, Processed Data, Tasks, Source, Destination |
5. Privileges |
Identification of the internal permissions and privileges to the accessible services. | Groups, Users, Permissions, Restrictions, Environment |
6. OS Setup |
Identification of the internal components and systems setup. | OS Type, Patch Level, Network config, OS Environment, Configuration files, sensitive private files |
Important note: The human aspect and the information that can be obtained by employees using OSINT have been removed from the "Internet Presence" layer for simplicity.
