A simple Python-based port scanner that checks for open ports on a target machine. This project demonstrates basic network programming concepts using Python's socket module.
- Scans a range of ports on a target IP address
- Identifies open ports
- Provides a simple and clear output
To use this port scanner, you need Python 3 installed on your system. Clone this repository and navigate to the project directory:
git clone https://github.com/binksBrew/Port_Scanner.git
