3. Topology Topology derived from Nessus traceroute data
Consider creating a user in SecurityCenter just for use with the 3D Tool
Filter a SecurityCenter traceroute query by address to control the areas of your network to render

4. Nessus Traceroute Plugin 10287

5. SC Host Query

6. IP Topology Configuration
(Create a login first, see 3D Tool 2.0 Quick Start Guide->Step 4)

7. Topology Rendering for Host

8. Network Topology Rendering
(Use another SecurityCenter query not filtered on a single host)

9. Internet Facing Services
Use 3D Tool “Modifiers” to highlight Internet facing services
Hosts will have raised bars representing counts for Internet facing services
Its important to understand where host services are exposed to the Internet when prioritizing vulnerabilities
Use PVS plugin 14, “Accepts External Connections”
Use existing network topology demonstrated in previous slide

10. PVS Plugin 14

11. SC Plugin 14 Query

12. (3D Tool 2.0 User Guide -> Modifiers -> Count List)
Modifier (PVS Plugin 14)
(3D Tool 2.0 User Guide -> Modifiers -> Count List)
Ensure to use “Total Vulns” from the Internet Facing Services SecurityCenter Query

14. Internet Browsing Services
Use a “Count List” Modifier like the previous Internet Facing Services example
Hosts will have raised bars representing counts for services they connect to on the Internet
Its important to understand where hosts reach out to the Internet when prioritizing “client” vulnerabilities
Client vulnerabilities are detected by PVS and Nessus when using credentialed scans
Use PVS plugin 16, “Outbound external connection”

15. PVS Plugin 16

17. Port 21 FTP Connections Use a “Connections List” Modifier
Show connection line for hosts that connect to port 21
Dark shaded side of a connection line will highlight a host that makes a connection to port 21
White shaded side of a connection line will highlight a host that provides a service on port 21
Its important to understand on a network where services are provided and used
Use PVS plugin 3, “Internal client trusted connection”

18. PVS Plugin 3

19. SC Query FTP Connections

20. (3D Tool 2.0 User Guide -> Modifiers -> Connections List)
Modifier (PVS Plugin 3)
(3D Tool 2.0 User Guide -> Modifiers -> Connections List)

22. Nessus Versus PVS Vulns
Use two “Count List” Modifiers
Hosts will have bars on top of them representing Nessus vulnerability counts
Hosts will have bars below them representing PVS vulnerability counts
Its important to look for potential gaps in coverage
Nessus gaps might be caused by unscanned service ports, infrequent host scanning or lack of credentialed scanning
PVS gaps might be caused by configuration errors, network visibility issues or poor operations management

23. SC Vuln Queries
Consider filtering out info and low severity rated vulnerabilities

24. Modifiers (Vulnerability Counts)
(3D Tool 2.0 User Guide -> Modifiers -> Count List)
Ensure to use “Total Vulns” from both queries
