Open DB2 Discovery Service Report

LAST UPDATED: 2022-08-29

This report identifies hosts that have the DB2 Discovery Service running and accessible on the Internet.

This service has the potential to expose information about a client’s network on which this service is accessible, and the service itself can be used in UDP amplification attacks.

For more details behind the scan methodology and a daily update of global DB2 Discovery Service scan statistics please visit our dedicated DB2 Discovery Service scan page.
