STEALTH SCANNING

The definition of a "stealth" scan has varied over recent years from what Chris Klaus, author of a paper titled "Stealth Scanning: Bypassing Firewalls/SATAN Detectors" delineated. Originally the term was used to describe a technique that avoided IDS and logging, now know as "half-open" scanning.
However, nowadays stealth is considered to be any scan that is concerned with a few of the following:
* setting individual flags (ACK, FIN, RST, .. )
* NULL flags set
* All flags set
* bypassing filters, firewalls, routers
* appearing as casual network traffic
* varied packet dispersal rates
