- Patch VPN gateways quickly: they are a top initial access target.
- Use certificates or MFA rather than shared secrets.
- Investigate unexpected tunnels and proxies: they are also attacker tools.

How do I check if port 5463 is open?
On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :5463'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :5463", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :5463" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 5463 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
