Benefits of a Finjan SSL Scanner • 100% Compatible with Vital Security • Preconfigured for optimum security • Preconfigured for performance • Easy Deployment
How it works… (1/2) • Workstation has SSL Appliance as Proxy Server for HTTPS. • Workstation receives a certificate that matches the requested URL. This certificate is generated by SSL appliance. • SSL appliance requests the information from the Internet using a NEW HTTPS connection. • SSL appliance checks the Server certificate for: • Revocation • Expiration • URL • Trusted chain
How it works… (2/2) • SSL appliance uses the Scanning Server for scanning. • NG Scanning Server returns SSL traffic to the SSL appliance. • Scanning Server replies with one of the answers below: • Error message • Modified headers and/or modified body • No adaptation needed • SSL appliance sends the original or the modified content to the workstation.
Default IP addresses (NG1400 & NG5400) • Connect a PC to the NG1400 or NG5400 right port (if necessary use cross cable) https://10.0.0.100:8380/VSSSLAdmin/LicenseAgr.html (username: admin password: admin) • This will start a wizard for configuring the SSL Scanning Server
