'GIEIS' will scan the Internet 24 hours a day for open ports, test them and catalogue them.

Be aware that any IP address seen to do that now without explicit permission is treated by many networks (including most that I've helped manage) as a source of abuse. I personally would consider that sort of activity unjustifiably obtrusive, and would consider any network hosting the source of such activity to be extremely suspect, to the point of treating their packets identically to any claiming to be from 10/8 but arriving on an external interface.

In addition, in some jurisdiction this may be considered illegal.
