• Accurately discovers all network-connected assets
• Non-intrusive scanning optimizes network performance
• Utilizes a highly comprehensive vulnerability database
• Allows users to create custom, corporate-policy driven scans
• Designed with an open architecture for customized audits and easy integration with third party platforms
• Maintained and updated by the eEye Research Team

Features & Benefits:

Unsurpassed vulnerability management
Retina Network Security Scanner is a professional-grade security solution with a lengthy track record of success and industry leadership. Retina contains all the integrated security and threat management tools needed to effectively identify and remediate the network vulnerabilities that lead to exposure and malicious attacks. Retina secures networks by:

• Accurately Discover All the Assets in the Network Infrastructure
• Implementing Corporate Policy Driven Scans to Audit Internal Guidelines
• Remotely Identifying System Level Vulnerabilities
• Providing Comprehensive Vulnerability Scanning
• Providing a workflow approach to Vulnerability Management

Accurate Asset Discovery & Inventory
Retina discovers all the assets on a given network, including operating systems, applications, services, databases and wireless devices. Retina’s advanced OS discovery utilizes ICMP, registry, NetBIOS, and the Nmap signature database, as well as eEye’s proprietary OS fingerprinting for more accurate and definitive OS identification.

Web Application & Database Scanning
Retina provides industry leading vulnerability assessment, unified configuration and vulnerability scanning across network devices, operating systems, applications, databases, and web applications using a scalable, non-intrusive approach.

Mitigation Assessment
Retina allows prioritized mitigation through its intuitive user interface, categorizing vulnerabilities according to risk level. Integration with third party help desk and ticketing systems is a simple process. Additionally, Retina’s Fix-It function can be used to remotely correct security issues such as registry settings, file permissions, and more.

Localized System Audits
Auditing of non-Windows devices includes SSH tunneling to perform local vulnerability assessment of UNIX, Linux, Cisco, and other devices. This allows security professionals to identify vulnerabilities on non-Windows devices that need local file or setting checks.

Smart Protocol Scanning
Retina reconciles the input/output data on each port to determine which protocols and services are running, including SSL. In this way, Retina makes adjustments for custom or unconventional machine setup.

Advanced Scheduling Capabilities
Retina’s scheduler function allows you to set the scanner to run on a regular basis to periodically check for vulnerabilities. Because Retina is non-intrusive, you can pre-schedule your scans without the risk of unplanned network downtime.
