Before you can secure a network, you have to know how it's threatened. SAINT, or the Security Administrator's Integrated Network Tool, uncovers areas of weakness and recommends fixes. With the SAINT® vulnerability scanner, you can:
- Detect and fix possible weaknesses in your networks security before they can be exploited by intruders.
- Anticipate and prevent common system vulnerabilities.
- Demonstrate compliance with current government regulations such as FISMA, SOX, GLBA, HIPAA, and COPPA and with industry regulations such as PCI DSS.
The SAINT® scanning engine is the ideal cornerstone for your vulnerability assessment program. SAINT features a graphical user interface that is intuitive and easy to use.
Benefits of using the SAINT Vulnerability Scanner
- Lets you exploit vulnerabilities found by the scanner with the integrated penetration testing tool, SAINTexploit™.
- Shows you how to fix the vulnerabilities, and where to begin remediation efforts —with the exploitable vulnerabilities.
- Lets you scan and exploit both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
- Shows you if the network is compliant with PCI security standards.
- Correlates CVE , CVSS, the presence of exploits, and more.
- Allows you to design and generate vulnerability assessment reports quickly and easily. Lets you present the findings of even the largest network scans in an easy-to-read format with colorful charts.
- Shows you if your network security is improving over time by using the trend analysis report.
- Gives you the following cross references, which can be automatically correlated in reports: CVE, IAVA, OSVDB, BID, CVSS 2.0 (PCI requirement), and SANS/FBI Top 20.
- Gives you the option to store the vulnerability data locally or remotely; your vulnerability data does not need to be sent across the Internet as it does with some other scanners.
- Provides automatic updates at least every two weeks, or sooner for a critical vulnerability announcement.
- Lets you manage and schedule scans across large enterprises with the SAINTmanager™ remote management console.
