# WHATPORT(10628)

## NAME

port 10628 — Unassigned — Unassigned by IANA; Nmap sees marginally more UDP than TCP activity here, and neither maps to a known service.

Protocol: TCP  
IANA registry

## DESCRIPTION

IANA has no registration for 10628 on any transport. Nmap's service frequencies list it as `unknown` for both TCP and UDP, with the UDP figure slightly the higher of the two — a hint that some of what touches this number is scan or backscatter traffic rather than a TCP service anyone runs. No public product documentation defaults to it. A TCP listener here is a deliberate local choice.

## EXPOSURE

**Expose with care.** Identify the process first. An unregistered port is often where someone parked an admin or debug endpoint precisely because it looked anonymous.

## CHECK

```sh
nmap -Pn -sV -p 10628 TARGET
```
