+ZMap is a fast network scanner designed for Internet-wide network surveys. On a
+typical desktop computer with a gigabit Ethernet connection, ZMap is capable
+scanning the entire public IPv4 address space in under 45 minutes.
+
+While previous network tools have been designed to scan small network segments,
+ZMap is specifically architected to scan the entire address space.  It is built
+in a modular manner in order to allow incorporation with other network survey
+tools.  ZMap operates on GNU/Linux and supports TCP SYN and ICMP echo request
+scanning out of the box.
+
+Documentation and examples can be found at https://zmap.io/.
