# WHATPORT(1062)

## NAME

port 1062 — Veracity — Registered to Veracity, a data-integrity product; the protocol was never publicly specified.

Protocol: TCP/UDP  
IANA registry

## DESCRIPTION

IANA assigns 1062 to `veracity`, registered by Ross Williams, whose Rocksoft product line of the period built around content-defined chunking and data-integrity verification. The registration name is all the public record retains — there is no published wire protocol and no current implementation documentation. Nmap carries the name with no description and sees it on well under 0.1% of hosts. A listener on 1062 today should be identified from its own banner rather than from this registration.

## EXPOSURE

**Expose with care.** Unknown service on an unprivileged port; fingerprint before deciding. Nothing in the registration justifies public exposure.

## CHECK

```sh
nmap -Pn -sV -p 1062 TARGET
```
