SuperScan is a powerful connect-based TCP port scanner, pinger and hostname resolver. Released by Foundstone . SuperScan 4 can be downloaded fromhttp://www.foundstone.com/us/resources/proddesc/superscan4.htm
The visual interface allows the attacker to view response from connected hosts. The built in editor allows manipulation of port list and port descriptions. The advantage is that certain ports can be skipped as the ping results can be analyzed before hand to make the scan faster. The tool can be used to connect to any discovered open port using user-specified "helper" applications and then assign a custom helper application to any port. The attacker can also choose to save the scan list to a text file for future reference. The scan can be done slowly as well by controlling the transmission speed.
On the windows platform, SuperScan does a very good job of swiftly looking for open ports. However, it does not give additional information such as if the port is close, open, or filtered. Nmap is the better scanner for more detailed information, or when the attacker wants to use more advanced scanning techniques.
