Finding Vulnerable Assets

Using Teleseer to find vulnerable assets

Overview

This exercise demonstrates how one can use Teleseer to find vulnerable devices and assets.

Teleseer provides multiple methods to identify vulnerable assets: via asset color, via asset tag

Let's explore each of these methods.
