Frequently Asked Questions
What is port scanning and why is it useful?
Port scanning identifies which network ports are open on a server, revealing active services and potential security vulnerabilities. It's essential for network administrators and security professionals. Combine this with our What is My IP tool to identify your server's public IP and Blacklist Checker to verify your server's reputation.
Is port scanning legal?
Port scanning is legal only when performed on systems you own or have explicit permission to test. Unauthorized scanning may violate computer fraud laws in many jurisdictions. Always ensure you have proper authorization before scanning any network or server.
Which ports should I check for VPS security?
Common ports to monitor include SSH (22), HTTP (80), HTTPS (443), MySQL (3306), and PostgreSQL (5432). Ensure only necessary ports are open and protected with firewalls. When selecting VPS hosting, check our VPS benchmarks to compare security features and performance across providers.
How can I secure open ports on my VPS?
Use firewalls to restrict access to essential ports only, implement strong authentication, keep services updated, and regularly audit open ports. Consider using SSL certificates for encrypted connections. For reliable and secure VPS hosting, explore our VPS provider comparisons to find solutions with robust security features.
