Overview
What is PromiScan?
PromiScan : Detect sniffing attempts in your network by analyzing a range of IP addresses in order to find workstations that accept all incoming data packets
In depth
A closer look at PromiScan
PromiScan can analyze the network traffic and the available nodes in order to find vulnerabilities that could lead to security-related issues. Relying on the power of WinPcap, it can detect nodes that can be exploited, so as to take the proper measures to avoid information leakage. PromiScan can scan a wide range of IP addresses without overloading the traffic. Its purpose is to help administrators monitor all workstations in the network so as to make sure that there are no computers that accept all the incoming packets, without taking into account their origin and the original destination. This can be an indicator that a sniffing program is used for intercepting private information. PromiScan provides a simple way to supervize network communications and identify users with malicious intentions. It can detect promiscuous interfaces that betray the usage of a network sniffing application with the purpose to collect sensitive data, such as user passwords.
