The system they have installed has to have a threshold of some sort before a block is put into place (x scans per y seconds/minutes etc). Many of the portscan tools in use have the ability to stagger or control the frequency of probes with timeout variables, parallel host scanning options, and/or simultaneous port probes which may help in bypassing the throttle trigger of their new filter-bot. Nmap for instance can also modify the delay between each probe frame to scan as quickly or as slowly as desired using the --scan_delay flag.
OTOH since your client could also have a firewall/IPS which blocks fast portscans it is a good idea to do slow portscans even from usual ISP. -- Regards, ASK
