Portsentry rings a bell for detecting port scans, but I’m not entirely confident if it covers stealth scans too.

This is a good question to test our understanding of network security tools. I'll need to review the capabilities of each of these programs to determine which ones can effectively detect stealthy port scans.

Wait, wait, wait. You're telling me there's a tool called 'portsentry'? Sounds like a superhero sidekick if you ask me. Let's hope it can catch the bad guys better than it can name itself.

Nah, nah, nah. A) nmap is the way to go. It's like the Swiss Army knife of network scanning tools. Bet it can handle any kind of port scan, even the stealthy ones.
