Authentication
LANsurveyor attempts to authenticate any new node discovered by Continuous
Scan.
If the new node has a Neon Responder with
the correct password, "Neon Responder" is displayed for Authentication.
If the new node has SNMP enabled with a community string
stored with the LANsurveyor map, "SNMP Community String"
is displayed. If the node is not
authenticated, "None" is displayed.
Continuous Scan is also integrated with a variety of third party solutions for vulnerability assessment, including Symantec's NetRecon, Qualys' QualysGuard, and Microsoft's Baseline Security Analyzer (MBSA).
LANsurveyor can then disable network access for a node
or send a customized alert based on whether or not
the node is authenticated.
