Security Audit Consulting

Automated Security Auditing

At Decision Consultants we are familiar with the use of auditing software such as Microsoft's Baseline Security Analyzer tool or GFI LANguard to perform a variety of automatic system scans to identify potential problems: 

• • Check service pack levels
  • Check for missing security patches
  • Check for security alerts/vulnerabilities
  • Detect unnecessary shares
  • Detect unnecessary open ports
  • Detect new security holes using scan comparisons
  • Check for unused user accounts
  • Check password policy and strength
  • Make an inventory of your network
  • Detect potential Trojans on servers and workstations
  • Find out if the OS is disclosing too much information 

Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer

Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer (MBSA) is the free, best practices vulnerability assessment tool for the Microsoft platform. It is a tool designed for the IT Professional that helps with the assessment phase of an overall security management strategy.
