"A precise network map isn't a luxury. It's an absolute foundation on which to lay any defensive security policy. If you don't know every service you listen to at your perimeter, your attackers will have to figure it out for you."
Ghosstless Security was designed not only as a port scanner but as a heuristic analyzer of each manufacturer's IP stack performance, enabling advocates to anticipate vulnerabilities before serious incidents occur.
