- RustScan is a port scanner written using Rust programming. The tool utilizes adaptive learning model to improvise itself over the time, i.e. more you use the tool, better it becomes.
# Tool Repo: https://github.com/RustScan/RustScan/
- It is mentioned on the official repo that this tool can do following:
- Scans all 65k ports in 3 seconds.
- Full scripting engine support. Automatically pipe results into Nmap, or use our scripts (or write your own) to do whatever you want.
- Adaptive learning. RustScan improves the more you use it. No bloated machine learning here, just basic maths.
- The usuals you would expect. IPv6, CIDR, file input and more.
- Automatically pipes ports into Nmap.
There are two main points that makes this tool my new preffered choice for the Port Scanning Tool:
- Speed [RustScan is pretty fast and I have compared it with a traditional nmap scan too. ]
