- Suggested Description
-
- SkPortScan ActiveX Control is a lightweight, intelligent, and powerful port scanner control.
- It allows developers to integrate port-scanning capabilities into their applications.
- SkPortScan can be used for network exploration or security auditing.
- SkPortScan can determine what services (ports) are open (offered) by remote hosts.
- It is capable of scanning multiple hosts simultaneously.
- SkPortScan can scan different protocols simultaneously:
- - TCP ports only;
- - UDP ports only;
- - TCP and UDP ports simultaneously.
- It can operate in 3 different scan modes:
- - Scan range of ports;
- - Scan authorized ports (authorized port numbers are divided into three ranges:
- the Well Known Ports, the Registered Ports, and the Dynamic and/or Private Ports.
- Well Known Ports are those from 0 through 1023, Registered Ports are those from 1024
- through 49151, and the Dynamic and/or Private Ports are those from 49152 through 65535.
- The Well Known Ports are assigned by the IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority) and
- on most systems can only be used by system (root level) processes or by programs executed
- by privileged users);
- - Scan hostile ports only (ports, that are mostly used for backdoors or trojan programs.
- hackers/crackers that break into systems often start processes running on one of the
- following ports and then use them to either regain entry or launch attacks against other
- sites).

- today built in, and, provides comprehensive APIs for accessing it. It can be used from any
