Technical Details

what runs on :3062

ncacn_ip_tcp is the connection-oriented DCE/RPC protocol sequence over IP. A client establishes a transport connection, performs an RPC bind to negotiate presentation and abstract syntax contexts, and then exchanges DCE/RPC request, response, fault, and related protocol data units. The registry lists both TCP and UDP for this assignment, but the protocol name conventionally denotes TCP; UDP use should not be assumed without evidence from the implementation. Microsoft RPC commonly uses TCP 135 as an endpoint mapper, followed by dynamically allocated RPC endpoint ports.

security overview

DCE/RPC does not provide encryption by default; authentication and integrity depend on the negotiated RPC security provider and deployment configuration. An exposed endpoint can disclose or provide access to sensitive RPC interfaces, so it should normally be restricted to trusted networks and monitored for unexpected bind or call activity. Port 3062 is rarely observed, reducing the practical exposure associated with this particular assignment.
