  "oneLiner": "A Veritas Backup Exec server listening for DBA-initiated Oracle and DB2 backup jobs.",
  "whatItIs": "IANA registered 5633 in 2006 as beorl, the BE Operations Request Listener, part of Symantec's — now Veritas' — Backup Exec. The media server opens it so database administrators can start Oracle and DB2 backups from the database host rather than from the backup console. On a scan it identifies the machine as a backup server, which is exactly the machine an attacker wants.",
  "exposure": {
    "verdict": "never",
    "note": "Backup infrastructure holds copies of everything; the listener belongs on the internal backup network, reachable only from the database hosts that need it."
