-Scan, how? Inside, external, credentials, ips, firewalls -Agent based vs passive vs active -Results integration -Results reporting -Team player
SCAN HOW? -Scanner Location -inside Network, outside network -Denial of service -Nmap
SCAN HOW? -Exclusions for Scanners -White box vs. Black box -Firewalls, IPS
SCAN HOW? -Credentials -Windows Desktops and Servers -Linux/Unix servers with SSH account/keys -SNMP strings -Cisco/Networking SSH credentials -Be careful with credentials: Dave/Immunity, Ron/Tenable, Qualys, more. - February/ htmlhttps://lists.immunityinc.com/pipermail/dailydave/2013- February/ html
CREDENTIALS? -Risks -Capture credentials -Use ssh keys -Never send clear text credentials -Secure your scanner applications -Passive Vulnerability (span port)

SCAN HOW?
AGENT VS ACTIVE SCANNING -Agent Pros -Near real time -No network traffic -No outages caused by scans -Agent Cons -May not be installed -May not be possible to install -Some vulns cannot be found
