EDIT: Banner grabbing is an activity that is used to determine information about services that are being run on a remote computer. This technique can be useful to administrators in cataloging their systems, and ethical hackers can also use it during penetration tests. Malicious hackers also use banner grabbing, since the technique can reveal compromising information about the services that are running on a system.

Edit: banner grabbing is not an enumeration! It is an information gathering! Link provided above confirms that, so the answer is False. EDIT: Wow, so how does the link confirm that in any logical fashion? By not explicitly stating that it is an enumeration technique? That's silly. And so should we regard banner grabbing as fingerprinting then? No, please don't. https://www.nsa.gov/Portals/70/documents/what-we-do/cybersecurity/professional-resources/ctr-nsa-css-technical-cyber-threat-framework.pdf (see pg 6, it's an enumeration technique) https://www.hackingtutorials.org/metasploit-tutorials/metasploitable-2-enumeration/ (referenced as an enumeration technique) https://www.bookofnetwork.com/ethical-hacking/Enumeration (listed as a type of enumeration) I could go on and on but this is tiresome. Changing to True since that's correct - TD
