SAFEsuite is the fastest, most comprehensive, proactive Windows NT™ and UNIX
network security scanner available. It configures easily, scans quickly, and
produces comprehensive reports.
SAFEsuite probes a network environment for selected security vulnerabilities,
simulating the techniques of a determined hacker. Depending on the reporting
options you select, SAFEsuite gives you information about each vulnerability
found: location, in-depth description, and suggested corrective actions.
SAFEsuite is made up three integrated modules:
SAFEsuite can be used on all TCP/IP-based networks -- networks connected to
the Internet as well as stand-alone networks and machines. Keep in mind that
there is a considerable threat from internal sources and that your network should
be secure from both internal and external dangers.
SAFEsuite should be run periodically. You should test the security of network
devices and the integrity of the network on a regular basis to detect newly
introduced weaknesses as well as changes in the network makeup. It is better to
take preventive measures than to repair the damage a malicious intruder can
inflict.

What is Internet Scanner SAFEsuite?
Internet Scanner: Provides a comprehensive set of vulnerability tests. These
tests affect services (such as RPC, NFS, Sendmail, Anonymous FTP, NNTP, and
others), environments (like X Windows), and NetBIOS. The Internet Scanner also
tests for vulnerability to Brute Force attacks and Denial of Service attacks.
Firewall Scanner: Provides a rigorous series of vulnerability tests specific
to Firewalls.
Web Scanner: Provides essential vulnerability test for Web servers.
Running scans of the network. You can run scans using the Graphical User
Interface or from the command line. You can also set up the scan to run unattended
as an
Analyzing the results. You can analyze the results of scans through the
Graphical User Interface or from the command line. Either way, you have the ability
to interactively create and examine reports.
