| Summary : A security tool designed to detect and stop port scanner\nprograms in real-time.
|
Description :
Sentry is a security tool which runs on multiple TCP and UDP
sockets to detect port scans against your system. Sentry reacts to a port
scan by blocking the port scanning host. Blocking is accomplished by
dropping the local route back to the attacker, by using the ipfwadm command
and/or by automatically adding the attacking host\'s IP address to a TCP
wrappers host.deny file. Sentry has an internal state engine which
remembers previously connected hosts (to avoid false alarms). Sentry
reports violations to local or remote syslog daemons, indicating the system
name, the time of attack, the attacking host\'s IP address and to which TCP or
UDP port the connection attempt was made.
