IDENT Port – Port 113 is associated with the Internet's (Identification /

Authentication) service. When a client program in your computer contacts a
remote server for services such as POP, IMAP, SMTP, that remote server
sends back a query to the "Ident" server running in many systems listening for
these queries on port 113. This means that port 113 is often probed by
attackers as a rich source of your personal information. By default it is
“Disable”.
