Backdoor Intruders

Table A-1 shows a list of known (as of this writing) ports and the backdoor viruses and Trojans that try to use these ports. Many of these may be old, but given that virus writers tend to reuse each other's code, tracking the historical viruses is important. This compiled list from www.sans.org/security-resources/idfaq/oddports.php and other sources is one you can cross reference if you believe you have been hacked.
