By default, what range of ports does Deep Security Manager scan?

Deep Security Manager is designed to scan a specific range of ports to monitor and secure the systems effectively. The correct answer reflects a fundamental understanding of the default configuration for port scanning.

By default, Deep Security Manager scans ports in the range from 1 to 1024. This range encompasses the well-known ports, which are critical for many standard internet and network services. Ports in this range are typically assigned to widely used protocols and applications, such as HTTP (port 80), HTTPS (port 443), FTP (port 21), and many others. By focusing on this range, Deep Security Manager is able to cover the most common services that could be vulnerable to attacks.

In contrast, the other ranges provided in the options encompass ports that are not covered by the default scanning settings, either focusing on higher numbered ports or ranges that do not include the most commonly used service ports. Understanding this default behavior is important for configuring and managing Deep Security to ensure comprehensive security coverage in your network environment.
