Why Geekflare Port Scanner API

Custom Port Ranges

Define exactly what to check. The API supports flexible inputs, allowing you to scan single ports (22), lists (80, 443), or full ranges (8000-9000).

Top Ports Presets

Use the topPorts parameter to automatically scan the most common 50, 100, 500, 1000, or 5000 ports frequently used by services and malware.

Real-Time Status

We perform active TCP connections to verify the actual status of the port.

Frequently Asked Questions

The legality varies by jurisdiction. You should only scan networks, domains, or IPs that you own or have explicit permission to audit. Unauthorized scanning can be considered a cyberattack.

The API attempts to establish a TCP connection to the specified ports on the target IP or hostname. It analyzes the response to determine if the port is open or closed.

If no parameters are provided, the API defaults to scanning the Top 100 most common ports.

To avoid being flagged by IDPS, ensure you are only scanning assets you have authorization for.
