"High-speed network discovery, service fingerprinting, and attack surface mapping."
Port Scanner is Pentoolkit's primary network discovery engine. It sends crafted probes to discover which ingress ports are open on a target, what services are running on those ports, and which versions of those services are installed. From a single IP address to a full /16 network range, Port Scanner gives you a complete picture of what's exposed.
PTK exposes 10 different scan types — from a fast top-100-ports sweep to a deep full-port scan with script execution and OS detection. Each scan type produces structured findings with port numbers, service names, version strings, and CVE matches when a vulnerable version is detected.
Use Port Scanner as the first tool on any new target. Its findings tell you what attack surface exists before running deeper tools like Vulnerability Scanner or Web Scanner.
