Abstract: Port scanning is an essential technique in the arsenal of network security professionals, enabling the identification of active services and potential vulnerabilities on target systems. Despite advances in the field, traditional tools like Nmap and Masscan face limitations in usability, scan speed, resource efficiency, and integration capabilities. This paper presents the development and robust evaluation of an advanced port scanning tool built with Python, applying multi-threading and asynchronous techniques. Through comparative assessments, the proposed tool demonstrates compelling advantages in speed, resource efficiency, and cross-platform support, contributing to both practical and academic applications in cybersecurity.
