I know about Stealth port scanning, that is nothing new.
but Stealth IP is.

"IP Gap Technology ensures access to the connected
computer system is disabled as it creates a virtual GAP
(disconnection) following a pre-determined Internet idle
interval. Access to your connected computer system is
managed through a Seamless Intelligent Infrastructure to
monitor inbound and outbound data. Without any delay,
each packet of information is inspected and only allows
access to authorized addresses. Once Gap is activated, it
can provide 100% bullet-proof network security to the
user"

These guys call it "ALPHAGAP". But it is essentially the
same technology.

I know a few people who know about this technology, but
they are unwilling to share.
