eEye Releases Free Vulnerability Scanner with Zero Day Identification and Configuration Auditing

eEye Digital Security, a provider of IT security and unified vulnerability management solutions, today announced the release of Retina Community, a free vulnerability scanner that identifies vulnerabilities (including zero-day), configuration issues, and missing patches across operating systems, applications, devices, and virtual environments. Available now, Retina Community enables enterprises and SMBs to scan a selected set of IP addresses, identify vulnerabilities and misconfigurations, and take steps to remediate security and compliance issues. Retina Community users receive regular vulnerability updates as well as vulnerability reporting and alerts. Organizations can use this free scanning solution to assess their security and compliance posture prior to making an investment in a more comprehensive vulnerability management solution.

“eEye has a long-standing history of providing valuable security tools to the IT community. Retina Community expands eEye’s growing list of free security resources to help organizations understand where their weak points are and close security and compliance gaps,” said Marc Maiffret, eEye cofounder and CTO. “With Retina Community, enterprises and SMBs can strengthen security and compliance posture overall, as well as identify zero-day threats and client-side application vulnerabilities, both of which are a significant threat to organizations.”

Retina Community provides users with critical capabilities:

  • Vulnerability assessment across operating systems, applications, devices, and virtual environments (32+ IPs)
  • Zero-day vulnerability identification
  • Configuration auditing
  • Integrated vulnerability updates and alerting
  • Detailed vulnerability and executive-level reporting
  • Report export to XML, CSV, and PDF
  • Online support and resources from eEye’s renowned research team

Retina Community leverages the power of the Retina Network Security Scanner — recognized as the industry’s most mature and effective vulnerability management technology. The Community scanner expands eEye’s Zero-Day Tracker, a free service that provides up-to-date information on critical zero-day vulnerabilities (i.e. vulnerabilities for which there are no vendor patches or fixes) by providing zero-day vulnerability scanning and more. Also, the tool expands eEye’s reputation as a thought-leader, adding to a growing list of free resources offered to the IT Security community at large, such as:
