Masscan is a command-line network scanner designed for large-scale discovery and infrastructure reconnaissance. It identifies open ports across specific network segments or the entire internet by probing vast address ranges with high efficiency. The tool functions as an asynchronous packet engine, bypassing standard operating system kernel networking stacks to transmit raw packets directly from application memory. The project distinguishes itself through a specialized architecture that manages millions of concurrent connections by separating packet transmission and reception into independent
Scans massive address ranges to identify active devices and open services with high efficiency.
