I think you're kind of overthinking it. It's a basic scan targeted at dumb end users, not an enterprise grade security audit.This port scanner means nothing in the real world. I suppose, if you had no idea that a FTP, HTTP/S or SMTP port was open, it might be beneficial, but it doesn't mean your firewall is inherently "less secure" because you are purposely routing these ports to a service or server behind the firewall. FWIW, we have http and https open (on purpose) to the outside world. This gives us a score of 22.9. However, I can easily drop packets from the port scanner's IP and obtain a score of 0. Also, it appears to only scan known ports and not obscure/non-standard ports.
I use a VPN through my DD_WRT router and I got 34/100. Turn off the VPN service and I get 0/100. I expected the opposite.
Same here...guessing its cause inhave qnap ports open?20 points due to HTTP (without SSL) being 6/6 and 1 open port.
How is the score even calculated? Seems to make no sense.
Same here. Also got dinged for having a self signed cert on my router's web UI.I use a VPN through my DD_WRT router and I got 34/100. Turn off the VPN service and I get 0/100. I expected the opposite.
Torrent Downloads: If an IP address detected downloading torrents, the risk level is considered extreme.
IP Addresses downloading torrents
0 / 1
I got a 0 score, probably because I use a vpn on my phone. Seems unreliable from the replies on the fourm here.
I would venture to say, with VPN on and running (assuming you are pulling an IP address), that your VPN IP is being checked.With my TorGuard VPN off I get no open ports at https://www.grc.com/
But with the VPN enabled it's showing open 22 and a few others. What gives? I see nothing in Torguard settings for closing ports, doesn't matter if I'm connected via TCP or UDP. Also, trying to close the port didn't change anything according to GRC

They probably have ports open to make said service work.
Edit - Tested it myself, looks like I was right.
Normal network 0/100
VMs forced through VPN 34/100, retested same VPN after killing service and on normal network 0/100.
Semtex.Hmm. I got a 45...and have no idea what any of it means or what I can, or should, do about any of it.
