3. 3 Introduction ISS Security Scanner The Internet Security Scanner was designed to help administrators explore and log network security vulnerabilities associated with TCP/IP host services.
Internet Scanner started off in 1992 as a tiny Open Source scanner by Christopher Klaus.
Shareware.
4. 4 Introduction Retina Retina is a commercial vulnerability assessment scanner by eEye, and is considered to be one of the fastest scanner’s on the market today.
5. 5 Why conduct penetration testing? If there is a single vulnerability that allows an intruder into a regular system, the entire machine becomes compromised.
This is true for most networks for mainly two reasons.
Sniffing
Trust authentication
6. 6 Internet Scanner 7.0Architecture
7. 7 Internet Scanner Controller The Internet Scanner Controller (ISC), is responsible for directing the sub-processes that perform various scanning duties.
These sub-processes, also known as MicroEngines
Built-in Engine
Plug-in Engine
Discovery Engine
FlexCheck Engine
8. 8 Built-in Engine The Built-in checks esources that are embedded in the exploits, resulting in dependency relationships between some exploits.
9. 9 Plug-in Engine Plug-ins are independent modules that perform vulnerability checks against a target host
10. 10 Discovery Engine The Discovery Module is responsible for gathering identification information from hosts.
Fingerprinter
ICMP pinger
TCP pinger
TCP port scanner
UDP port scanner
DNS lookup utility
NetBIOS utilities
Operating System Identification (OSID)
Windows Service Pack
11. 11 Flex Check Engine The Flex Check engine loads and executes external programs that attempt to identify specific vulnerabilities on a host.
Exploit Manager
Resource Manager
Encryption
TCP/IP Stack Fingerprinting
12. 12 Benefits of ISS Minimize business risk
Low cost of ownership
Proactive protection
Scalable
Ease of use

15. 15 Retina Despite its powerful capabilities, Retina was designed to be the easiest scanner to operate.
Retina also features a number of automatic features that facilitate such functions as scheduling, repairing common system problems and updating the application.
16. 16 Features of Retina Non-Intrusive Scanning
Retina can scan the network without overloading its resources and without causing systems to crash
Frequent Updates for New Vulnerabilities
Retina's Auto-Update function provides easy Internet access for downloading the latest vulnerability checks
17. 17 Features of Retina Rogue Wireless Access Detection
Retina automatically detects the presence of unauthorized access points on networks of any size
Ability to Uncover Unknown Vulnerabilities
Retina can actually detect previously unknown or hidden vulnerabilities.
High-Speed Scanning Ability
Retina is able to scan an entire Class C network in about 15 minutes.
18. 18 Features of Retina Remote Repair Capabilities
Auto-Fix function allows one to automatically correct common system security issues such as registry settings, file permissions and more.
Comprehensive and Up-to-Date Vulnerabilities Database
Advanced knowledge of security issues due to discoveries made by its own team of security experts.
19. 19 Features of Retina Advanced and Customized Reporting Capabilities
Retina automatically customizes the content of its network audit reports to reflect the severity of the vulnerabilities discovered and the level of security risk involved.
Custom Audit Wizard
Audit Wizard simplifies the process of building custom checks
Advanced Scheduling Capabilities
Retina's scheduler function allows one to set the scanner to run on a regular basis to periodically check for vulnerabilities
20. 20 Features of Retina Remote Scanning Capabilities
Retina scans can be securely initiated from any location. (Remote Manager)
Open Architecture
Custom changes to the Retina interface
Retina’s Policies Wizard that walks one through the creation of a custom scan
21. 21 Retina in Action
22. 22 Pricing Information Retina pricing is based on the number of IP addresses that require scanning and the number of users (licenses) that will be conducting the scanning. Standard Retina licenses may only be used to scan systems within the organization for which the license was originally purchased. Retina Traveling licenses are available for consultants that require the ability to perform scans for more than one organization
