Internet Scanner is a Microsoft® Windows® 2000 and UNIX network security scanner. It investigates and analyzes your network environment for selected security vulnerabilities, simulating the techniques of skilled vulnerability analysts and network security engineers. Depending on the reporting options you select, Internet Scanner gives you information about each detected vulnerability, including its location, detailed description, and suggested corrective actions.
Internet Scanner can be used on all TCP/IP-based networks (networks connected to the Internet) as well as on stand-alone networks and computers. You should run Internet Scanner periodically to test the security of network devices and the integrity of the network. This is to detect newly introduced weaknesses and changes in the network.
