Depends on what your scanning.

  • T1 is a far less aggressive scan when compared to T5, you might want to look into other speed options
  • sS can be mistaken for syn-flood attacks on some basic firewalls and IDS systems, sometimes sT is quicker across network boundaries
  • sU UDP can be very unreliable, combine it with Application triggers -A (aggressive scan) to more accurately determine open ports, but then increases the chances of detection
  • Also nmap inserts a fixed string into all packets any IDS (example Snort) can easily fingerprint an nmap scan, think of alternative scanning engines

When in doubt or unsure

man nmap
