portsentry

Portscan detection daemon

PortSentry has the ability to detect portscans(including stealth scans) on the network interfaces of your machine. Upon alarm it can block the attacker via hosts.deny, dropped route or firewall rule. It is part of the Abacus program suite. Note: If you have no idea what a port/stealth scan is, It's recommended to have a look at http://sf.net/projects/sentrytools/ before installing this package. Otherwise you might easily block hosts you'd better not (e.g. your NFS-server, name-server, etc.).

Install the latest version of portsentry in Debian, Ubuntu, Kali and Raspbian from terminal. To install the portsentry just copy the above command for your OS and run into terminal. After you run the command it will grab the latest version of portsentry from the respository and install it in your computer/server.
