There are tools which automate most of this for you. You just give it an IP address and it will scan the system for vulnerabilities, automatically find exploits to take advantage of the vulnerabilities and then report all this back so it can be used to hack into the system.

Counter intelligence IS intelligence gathering.

You just answered your own question. Just because we are not aware that she has, doesn't imply that she definitely hasn't.
