Masscan vs RustScan
GitHub Stats
About Masscan
Masscan is the fastest Internet port scanner. It can scan the entire Internet in under 6 minutes, transmitting 10 million packets per second from a single machine. It produces results similar to Nmap but operates asynchronously, transmitting packets without waiting for responses. The internal architecture is more similar to scanrand and unicornscan than traditional scanners. It uses a custom TCP/IP stack to avoid the overhead of the operating system's networking stack.
About RustScan
RustScan is a lightning-fast port scanner written in Rust, capable of scanning all 65,536 ports in just a few seconds. It leverages Rust's concurrency features to achieve high-speed performance and integrates seamlessly with Nmap for detailed service enumeration and vulnerability detection. RustScan's efficiency makes it ideal for quick reconnaissance activities and large-scale network assessments. Its flexibility and speed set it apart in the realm of network scanning tools.
