Explanation

Enum is a console-based Win32 information enumeration utility. It uses null sessions to retrieve user lists, machine lists, share lists, name lists, group and member lists, passwords, and LSA policy information. It is also capable of performing brute force and dictionary attacks on individual accounts. Since the Enum tool works on the NetBIOS NULL sessions, disabling the NetBIOS port can be a good countermeasure against the Enum tool.
