Cerberus Internet Scanner

Overview

Vendor Description

 A free security scanner written and maintained by Cerberus Information Security. Cerberus is one of the most popular Windows NT and 2000 security scanners. The automatically-generated reports, which provide the user with information on which settings are potentially dangerous and how they can be changed, are extremely valuable. Cerberus is user-friendly and carries out about 300 scans.

Category

 Probe Tool: A tool that explores another system, looking for vulnerabilities. While these can be used by security managers, wishing to shore up their security, the tools are as likely used by attackers to evaluate where to start an attack. An example is an NT Security Scanner.
