PromiScan0.29

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.As far as usage is concerned, the application should not pose any difficulty whatsoever. Its interface is simple and user-friendly, enabling you to select the IP range you want to scan and initiate the analysis with the push of a button. The results are shown within the main window, along with the corresponding IP and MAC addresses and other details about each workstation.Before starting the scan, you are advised to enter details about your own PC within the 'Setup' section. Additionally, you can configure the scan options and activate the so-called 'fast mode', which significantly reduces the analysis time.Network sniffing application can be a real weapon in the wrong hands, resulting in important information leaks. PromiScan aims to help you in this matter by detecting vulnerable nodes that could result in divulging private information.
