Reproducing Random Forest Efficacy in Detecting Port Scanning. (arXiv:2302.09317v1 [cs.CR])
cs.CR updates on arXiv.org arxiv.org
Port scanning is the process of attempting to connect to various network
ports on a computing endpoint to determine which ports are open and which
services are running on them. It is a common method used by hackers to identify
vulnerabilities in a network or system. By determining which ports are open, an
attacker can identify which services and applications are running on a device
and potentially exploit any known vulnerabilities in those services.
Consequently, it is important to detect …
