Network Security Scans
Domotz scans every monitored network for security vulnerabilities on both sides of the perimeter: a slow TCP open-port scan against the public IP (WAN) and a UPnP port-forwarding scan inside the LAN. Alerts fire whenever a new device joins.
Automatically scan networks for security vulnerabilities with:
- TCP Open Port Scanner (WAN side)
- UPnP Port Forwarding Scanner (LAN side)
Receive real-time alerts when a new device joins the network. Detect intruders and identify network security threats.
Alerts on network security monitoring scans
Both internal LAN perimeter scans and external WAN perimeter scans are performed to ensure that your network is compliant with the security best practices
What’s more, you will be informed if there is any potential threat, so you can decide whether to acknowledge that threat.
WAN scan - TCP open port scanner
Domotz periodically performs slow TCP port scans against the Public IP address of the monitored network (WAN Scan) to identify and inform you if any TCP port has been found open. The opened ports found can be marked as safe or removed in case the have been closed.
UPnP port forwarding scanner
Domotz performs an internal UPnP scan (LAN Scan) to identify whether UPnP is enabled on the router/modem and whether any device on the network is leveraging UPnP to open ports and redirect the traffic.
While a router/modem normally blocks incoming connections, preventing malicious access, UPnP could allow a malicious program to bypass the firewall entirely.
