Does anyone know if Port 9980 is important?

Vi Tran

Hi,

I noticed when I enter the following in CLI:

 

nmap --script ssl-enum-ciphers -p 9980 <IP Address here> (ie. 10.x.x.1)

 

it shows port 9980 is vulnerable to TLSv1.0. Is there a way to correct this? Is port 9980 important? Is there a way to close port 9980?

 

Thanks,

    Is use this Wikipedia article for information about official and unofficial port usage

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_TCP_and_UDP_port_numbers

    The list does not define 9980, so it is proprietary to some application.

    The acceptable TLS settings are determined by the endpoints, so you need to find that machine and change its settings.

    Windows products have tailorable ciphersuites if the product is using the (default) SCHANNEL security provider. 

    If it is a website on a server which is too obsolete to support better ciphersuites, you might be able to put UTM Webserver Protection in front of it to enforce TLS 1.2.
