- Do not expose remote administration directly: use a VPN or a zero-trust access proxy.
- Require MFA or key-based authentication and lock out brute-force attempts.
- Log every login and alert on new source addresses.

Which program uses port 24754, and is it reachable?
Linux
sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :24754' # process listening on 24754
sudo lsof -nP -i :24754macOS
sudo lsof -nP -i :24754
Windows (PowerShell)
Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 24754 -State Listen | Select LocalAddress, OwningProcess Get-NetUDPEndpoint -LocalPort 24754 netstat -ano | findstr :24754
From another machine
nmap -p 24754 -sV <host> nc -zv <host> 24754
Block it in the firewall

What is port 24754 used for?
Port 24754 is assigned by IANA to cslg (Citrix StorageLink Gateway).
Is port 24754 TCP or UDP?
Port 24754 is registered for TCP.
Is it safe to open port 24754?
It depends on the program that listens on it. Open it only for a service you know and only to the networks that need it. Do not expose remote administration directly: use a VPN or a zero-trust access proxy.
How do I check if port 24754 is open?
On Linux run "ss -ltnup 'sport = :24754'", on macOS "lsof -nP -i :24754", and on Windows "netstat -ano | findstr :24754" to see the local process. From another machine, "nmap -p 24754 <host>" shows whether it is reachable.
