RustScan : Revolutionizing Port Scanning With Speed And Extensibility

The Modern, Blazing Fast Port Scanner. Find ports quickly (3 seconds at its fastest). Run scripts through our scripting engine (Python, Lua, Shell supported).

Installation

You can install RustScan’s binary from our releases page

We would prefer you to install with a package manager so it is tested and works for your system.

RustScan is in many repositories already. Install it with whatever tools you wish:

RustScan only officially supports Cargo installations, if you want to use that please install Rust and then cargo install rustscan

Example installations include:

MacOS:

  brew install rustscan

Arch:

  yay rustscan

Features

  • Scans all 65k ports in 3 seconds.
  • Full scripting engine support. Automatically pipe results into Nmap, or use our scripts (or write your own) to do whatever you want.
  • Adaptive learning. RustScan improves the more you use it. No bloated machine learning here, just basic maths.
  • The usuals you would expect. IPv6, CIDR, file input and more.
  • Automatically pipes ports into Nmap.
