SATAN [ SECURITY ANALYSIS TOOL FOR AUDITING NETWORK]

INTRODUCTION:

What is SATAN?

SATAN is the Security Analysis Tool for Auditing Networks. In its simplest (and default) mode, it gathers as much information about remote hosts and networks as possible by examining such network services.

The information gathered includes the presence of various network information services as well as potential security flaws -- usually in the form of incorrectly setup or configured network services, well-known bugs in system or network utilities, or poor or ignorant policy decisions.
