Network Port Scanner & Service Fingerprinter

TCP and UDP scanning with banner grabbing, for your own lab hosts

1-2 weeks build

Overview

An asynchronous scanner that probes TCP and UDP ports on hosts you own, records which are open, and grabs service banners to guess the software and version behind each one. It is a learning tool for understanding your own network surface, ships with a strict scope allow-list, and stores each scan so you can diff exposure over time.

What makes it stand up

  • 01Scan only hosts you own or are explicitly authorised to test
  • 02Concurrent TCP connect and UDP probing via asyncio
  • 03Banner grabbing to fingerprint service and version
  • 04Scope allow-list that refuses out-of-range targets
  • 05Scan history stored so you can diff open ports over time

Module breakdown

  1. 01

    Scanner core

    Async TCP and UDP probes with configurable timeouts.

  2. 02

    Fingerprint

    Reads banners and matches them to known services.

  3. 03

    Scope guard

    Validates every target against the allow-list first.

  4. 04

    Storage

    Persists each scan for later comparison.

  5. 05

    Report

    Prints and exports open ports with service guesses.

After this, you will be able to

  • Explain the difference between TCP connect and UDP scanning
  • Defend the scope controls that keep scanning authorised
  • Demo a scan and fingerprint of a lab host
