Retina™ The Network Security Scanner
Acknowledged as the fastest security scanner on the market today, Retina is designed to identify known and unknown vulnerabilities, suggest fixes to identified vulnerabilities, and report possible security holes within a network's internet, intranet, and extranet environments. The product's patented technology eclipses the capabilities of the past generation of security scanners and employs a unique artificial intelligence engine that allows the product to think like a hacker or network security analyst attempting to penetrate your network.
Retina is a best-of-breed scanner supported by powerful features that are attractive to the network administrator and the security consultant alike. eEye has committed to making Retina the most feature-rich scanner on the market and actively solicits and incorporates client feedback and requests.
Retina's key features include:
Breadth of Systems and Services Audited
Retina includes vulnerability auditing modules for many systems and services. These include: NetBIOS, HTTP, CGI and WinCGI, FTP, DNS, DoS vulnerabilities, POP3, SMTP, LDAP, TCP/IP, UDP, Registry, Services, Users and Accounts, password vulnerabilities, publishing extensions, and more.
Retina runs on the Windows NT platform, but unlike its peers, it is not limited to only scanning Windows NT networks for vulnerabilities. In fact Retina has the ability to scan all types of operating systems, including most Unix operating systems (Solaris, Linux, *BSD etc...) and networked devices (routers, firewalls etc...) that run home grown operating systems.
CHAM (Common Hacking Attack Methods)
This groundbreaking feature is the first of its kind. CHAM employs AI technology in order to simulate the thought process of a hacker or security analyst in finding holes in networks and software packages.
CHAM enables Retina to go beyond looking for known vulnerabilities. By simulating the approach and thought process of a hacker, CHAM is able to identify unknown vulnerabilities in networks. Set it loose on your Web server, or on custom application being developed by your engineers. eEye uses CHAM in its own vulnerability research efforts and has been invaluable in enhancing its capabilities in releasing many such advisories.
NMAP Technology
Retina is the first and only commercial scanner to license and incorporate the NMAP Fingerprint Database -- the most complete database of OS TCP/IP stack fingerprints available. This allows Retina to perform remote operating system detection for smarter scanning.
Smart Scanning
Retina is absolutely thorough when it comes to scanning your network. When running a scan, Retina does not make assumptions about typical protocols running behind certain ports. It analyzes specific input/output data on a port to determine what protocol and service is actually running in case of custom or unconventional machine setup.
Open Architecture
Retina is built with an open architecture that provides the administrator the opportunity to develop vulnerabilities, tests, and auditing modules tailored to an organization's precise requirements. A documented set of APIs is provided for custom audit development without limiting the developer to specific programming languages.
Policies
Retina provides the user with total flexibility on which audits to perform. Using the Policies wizard, users may select specifically which ports they wish to audit. The flexibility of turning on and off any of the policies run by Retina gives the administrator flexible control over the breadth and depth of scans.
Smart Reporting
Produce fully documented network audit reports based on Retina's security scans. Smart Reporting allows the network administrator to access, read and print these real-time security test results with ease. Two options are available for reporting: the Technical Report with intricate detail to satisfy IT personnel, and the Executive Report for high-level management summaries. The reports may also be "white labeled" with the client's logo and contact information.
Graphical User Interface
Retina was created with a simple-to-navigate graphical user interface. This interface can easily be used to control all aspects of scanning and reporting features within Retina.
Fix-It
This distinct feature allows the network administrator to automatically correct common system security issues including registry settings, file permissions, and more. This component can also work remotely across a vast network, affording the network administrator the freedom and flexibility to operate from a single location.
Auto Update
Retina has an auto-update feature that provides continuous updates for its modules using an Internet connection. This feature will allow the network administrator to update Retina's modules on a regular basis, thus keeping pace with the latest vulnerabilities.
System Requirements
1. Windows 2000 -or- Windows NT Version 4.0 SP6a or higher
2. Internet Explorer Version 4.01 or higher
3. 32 MB of memory
4. 16 MB of free disk space
5. Internet connection (optional for remote scanning)
