GFI LANguard Network Security Scanner (N.S.S.) checks

your network for all potential methods that a hacker

might use to attack it. By analyzing the operating

system and the applications running on your network,

GFI LANguard N.S.S. identifies possible security holes.

In other words, it plays the devil's advocate and

alerts you to weaknesses before a hacker can find them,

enabling you to deal with these issues before a hacker

can exploit them.

GFI LANguard N.S.S. scans your entire network, IP by

IP, and provides information such as service pack level

of the machine, missing security patches, wireless

access points, USB devices, open shares, open ports,

services/applications active on the computer, key

registry entries, weak passwords, users and groups, and

more. Scan results can easily be analyzed using filters

and reports, enabling you to proactively secure your

network - for example, by shutting down unnecessary

ports, closing shares, installing service packs and

hotfixes, etc.

GFI LANguard N.S.S. is also a complete patch management

solution. After it has scanned your network and

determined missing patches and service packs - both in

the operating system and in the applications - you can

use GFI LANguard N.S.S. to deploy those service packs

and patches network-wide. It can also deploy custom

software network-wide.
