Could we all please put away our members for a moment? The bottom line is, there are times and places where "port scanning" is required. I would assume the intelligence level of this group warrants no in depth explanation or case study. How about this, differentiating between legitimate "port scans" and preempts to an attack. How, when, and where. Also, correct escalation procedures to security departments and law officials. Jade Jade E.

When was the last successful time?
