![]() ![]() While ZMap is a powerful tool for researchers, please keep in mind that by running ZMap, you are potentially scanning the ENTIRE IPv4 address space and some users may not appreciate your scanning. We encourage ZMap users to respect requests to stop scanning and to exclude these networks from ongoing scanning. ![]() We suggest that users coordinate with local network administrators before performing any scans and we have developed a set of scanning best practices, which we encourage researchers to consider. It should go without saying that researchers should refrain from exploiting vulnerabilities or accessing protected resources, and should comply with any special legal requirements in their jurisdictions. You can download ZMap here (it’s also available via repo install for most common *nix operating systems): $ zmap -bandwidth=10M -target-port=80 -max-targets=10000 -output-file=results.csv Spread scan traffic over time or source addresses when feasible.Conduct scans no larger or more frequent than is necessary for research objectives.Provide a simple means of opting out and honor requests promptly.Clearly explain the purpose and scope of the scans in all communications.Signal the benign nature of the scans in web pages and DNS entries of the source addresses.Verify that scans will not overwhelm the local network or upstream provider.Coordinate closely with local network administrators to reduce risks and handle inquiries.
