Summary : Port Scan Attack Detector (psad) watches for suspect traffic
URL : https://www.cipherdyne.org/psad/
License : GPLv2+
Description : Port Scan Attack Detector (psad) is a lightweight
: system daemon written in Perl designed to work with Linux
: iptables firewalling code to detect port scans and other suspect traffic. It
: features a set of highly configurable danger thresholds (with sensible
: defaults provided), verbose alert messages that include the source,
: destination, scanned port range, begin and end times, tcp flags and
: corresponding nmap options, reverse DNS info, email and syslog alerting,
: automatic blocking of offending ip addresses via dynamic configuration of
: iptables rulesets, and passive operating system fingerprinting. In addition,
: psad incorporates many of the tcp, udp, and icmp signatures included in the
: snort intrusion detection system (https://www.snort.org) to detect highly
: suspect scans for various backdoor programs (e.g. EvilFTP, GirlFriend,
: SubSeven), DDoS tools (mstream, shaft), and advanced port scans (syn, fin,
: xmas) which are easily leveraged against a machine via nmap. psad can also
: alert on snort signatures that are logged via fwsnort
: (https://www.cipherdyne.org/fwsnort/), which makes use of the
: iptables string match module to detect application layer signatures.
