The whole port range can be scanned in under a second. A real attack does not care if your ssh port is 22 or 69420. Changing Port is just snake oil.

They might care if it’s 69420 since the max port number is 2^16 = 65536

It can be scanned, but definitely not under a second.

  Yes, it is called multithreading. Just one example: github.com/BrandonBerne/masscan

    You can fire packets as fast as you like, but if my end can’t process them that fast, either they’ll get dropped or you’ll knock me offline. Neither makes a valid scan.
