About Port Scanning

Port scanning is a technique used to identify open ports and services on a network host. It's an essential tool for network administrators and security professionals to assess the security posture of systems.

How Port Scanning Works

A port scanner sends packets to a range of port addresses on a host, and analyzes the responses to determine if ports are open, closed, or filtered. Different scanning techniques (like TCP connect, SYN, or UDP scans) can be used depending on the specific requirements.
