        I think he means something like Nessus. Not "Vulnerabilities in the 
software" but rather "How bad is my configuration, have I missed something".

         

        http://www.nessus.org/

         

        If you don't have the resources to run Nessus from outside yourself, 
you can pick any of your run-off-the-mill Mickey Mouse Security Analysts firm, 
you know "Running automated scanners since 1984".

        My current client uses Qualys Guard, it's run to scan two addresses 
during the weekend and mail me the reports on Monday. It is slightly more 
evolved than Nessus on some regards, but it also moans about non-issues such as 
"ZOMG YOU USE NTLM WE AER DOOMED!!!1" and the like.

         

        http://www.qualys.com/

         

        But overall the reports are neat, and you can print one for the pointy 
haired bosses with almost no tech details, and one with all the nasty gritty 
details and workarounds and external references for the techies if you want.

         

        I'd like to mention that an abrasive, aggressive, unpolite Nessus scan 
used to crash our J2EE server due to the long strings and garbage it would feed 
your URL to check how tight you are.

         

        ... of course for just a matter of "is such and such port accepting 
connections" you can pay a visit to our alarmist friend Steve Gibson and his 
scary mustache:

         

        https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2

         

        Just *don't* read the banter on the website. It will make your brain 
melt. "hidden internet server inside your PC" is not the way I'd describe 
netbios and smb/cifs.

        What vulnerabilities are you looking for?

         

        Secunia reports ZERO.

         

        Think you'll find some that the world's hackers haven't found yet?

                Hi Everyone,

                 

                Is there a tool to test the vulnerability of ISA2004 from 
External?

                 

                Thanks,

                 

                Mykel
