8888_scan_internal

Explanation

This NDM is designed to detect scanning for servers listening on port 8888 inside the customer's network. Port 8888 is used as an alternative HTTP port by many software products. It is also used by ManageEngine's AdSelfService Plus.

What to Look For

Unauthorized scanning activity launched inside your network may be an indication that your network is compromised. Investigate hosts that are the source of this sort of activity in order to make sure that it is authorized and expected, and the hosts have not been compromised. Authorized scanners should be labeled in Netography Fusion so that scanning events do not trigger for them.
