# WHATPORT(8192)

## NAME

port 8192 — spytechphone (SpyTech Phone Service) — Registered in 2006 to SpyTech Phone Service; rarely what you are actually looking at.

Protocol: TCP  
IANA: spytechphone

## DESCRIPTION

IANA assigns 8192 on TCP and UDP to spytechphone, "SpyTech Phone Service", a 2006 registration with no public specification. The name shows up in port lookup tables far more often than the service shows up on networks. 8192 is also a familiar number for other reasons — it is 2^13, so it gets chosen by hand for local services and test harnesses. Treat the registration as trivia and identify the listener directly.

## EXPOSURE

**Expose with care.** The registration gives you no basis for a judgement; the judgement has to come from what the service actually is.

## CHECK

```sh
nc -vz TARGET 8192
```
