I have been monitoring some suspicous activity on our network in our
organization in the last 24 hours. We have numeours systems and departments to go through. I have rounded the activity to around 200 systems (out of 3000) that could be the culprit. I belive there is an FTP server running on a system and the server is using a port other than port 21. Is there a port scanner out there that will scan all ports and say weather its an open FTP, HTTP, or what ever type of port. I know there are numerous port scanners in existance but all I have seen, for example lets say port 21 is open it states "port 21 (FTP)" where the FTP port may exist on port 2300 and if the scanner runs over that it just states "Port 2300" well I want to know what port 2300 is, if it is a common protocol. Also is there a port scanner that will state what virusus, backdoors, spyware, etc. would be associated with any open port as they are found. Thank You |

Don't think there is a single definitive answer, but this might help:
http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers As for FTP, that can in principle take place on any port, although telnetting to a suspicious open-port may get a response that tells you what program is 'behind' the port. telnet computername:21 might be revealing. BTW, port 21 is purely the FTP control port, data goes on a separate port established when the connection is made. |
