Background: On my network I have a Unifi UDM Pro which on regular intervals port scans all devices on the network to see if a port is open somewhere that shouldn't be. On computers protected by Bitdefender this causes a notification of blocked port scan to pop up. For computer-savvy persons this popup is just annoying and tends to occur on the most inconvenient times, and for the other users this popup causes them to think that something bad is happening on the network.
New idea, option 1: Be able to create a list of port scan sources that will not cause the popup notification to show. The port scan will still be blocked and this is shown in the Bitdefender log, but you just don't get the popup notification.
New idea, option 2: Create a white list of sources allowed to perform a port scan. This way active security devices can inspect the devices protected by Bitdefender. This way malware and legit software installed in contradiction with local policy will not be protected by port scan blocks. (When Bitdefender blocks the port scan the port scan will fail to detect open ports by installed software not caught by Bitdefender.) The fact that a port scan was detected but allowed since the source was on the white list should be noted in the Bitdefender log.
