Description: enhance OS security through a set of techniques
This package contains a service to enhance OS security through a set of following
techniques:
* All 65535 TCP ports are always open
Instead of informing an attacker that a particular port is in a CLOSED or
FILTERED state Portspoof will return SYN+ACK for every port connection
attempt/
* Every open TCP port emulates a service
Portspoof has a huge database of dynamic service signatures, that will be
used to generate fake banners and fool scanners.
.
This tool requires configuration before use.
