Port Scanning: UDP and TCP

In this whiteboard session, we will address port scanning. Now. Port scanning can be performed against TCP and UDP ports.

Identifying open ports on a target system is the stage that a bad actor has to carry out when understanding and defining the attack surface of a target.

These open ports correspond to the networked services running on a system. And it's something you want to protect your network against.

To test what is open on your network, we use the process of port scanning. And this can be done with a tool called Scapy.
