Abstract
In recent years, many scanning organizations deploy large numbers of scanners to actively probe the Internet. Identifying the organizations behind these scanners is of significant value. The problem of analyzing the sources of scanners has been investigated in various studies. However, as far as we know, the problem of effectively and generally identifying scanner organizations in real-world scenarios remains unsolved.
