Foundstone: Low Risk, High Reward

摘要

By looking for known weaknesses in a dizzying array of OS and networking products, network-based vulnerability-assessment (VA) tools help admins find problems before bad things happen. McAfee's latest update to its flagship VA scanner, Foundstone FS1000, presents a mature platform for aiding in the vulnerability management process. New to version 5.0 are the ability to log into systems using SSH to perform more granular vulnerability checking, an advanced notification module that allows for two-way communication to third-party ticketing systems using SNMP, and unproved OS identification capabilities.
