Network tests

After starting the program users are prompted to create a new task. It is necessary to specify network domain names or IP addresses to check. Additionally, users can change advanced scan parameters. There are options for selecting specific vulnerability types and search methods.

This utility can perform a deep network structure analysis. All opened ports and other potential issues are listed in the main window after the scan is complete. Moreover, you are able to check any website to ensure its security.

Please note that the free trial version of XSpider provides limited functionality.
