Vulnerability Scanner can check for the presence of security software on agents. The following table
discusses how Vulnerability Scanner checks security products:
Security Products Checked by Vulnerability Scanner
Product |
Description
|
ServerProtect for Windows
|
Vulnerability Scanner uses RPC endpoint
to check if
SPNTSVC.exe is running. It returns
information including operating system, and Virus Scan Engine, Virus
Pattern and product versions. Vulnerability Scanner cannot detect
the ServerProtect Information Server or the ServerProtect Management
Console. |
ServerProtect for Linux
|
If the target endpoint does not run Windows,
Vulnerability Scanner checks if it has ServerProtect for Linux installed
by trying to connect to port 14942.
|
Security Agent
|
Vulnerability Scanner uses the Security Agent port to check
if the Security Agent is installed.
It also checks if the
TmListen.exe process
is running. It retrieves the port number automatically if executed
from its default location.If you launched Vulnerability Scanner on any endpoint other than the Trend Micro Apex One server, check and then use the other endpoint's communication port.
|
PortalProtect™
|
Vulnerability Scanner loads the web page
http://localhost:port/PortalProtect/index.html to
check for product installation. |
ScanMail™ for Microsoft Exchange™
|
Vulnerability Scanner loads the web page
http://ipaddress:port/scanmail.html to
check for ScanMail installation. By default, ScanMail uses port
16372. If ScanMail uses a different port number, specify the port
number. Otherwise, Vulnerability Scanner cannot detect ScanMail. |
InterScan™ family
|
Vulnerability Scanner loads each web page
for different products to check for product installation.
|
Trend Micro Internet Security™ (PC-cillin)
|
Vulnerability Scanner uses port 40116 to
check if Trend Micro Internet Security is installed.
|
McAfee VirusScan ePolicy Orchestrator
|
Vulnerability Scanner sends a special token to TCP port 8081, the default port of ePolicy Orchestrator for providing connection between the server and agent. The endpoint with this antivirus product replies using a special token type. Vulnerability Scanner cannot detect the standalone McAfee VirusScan. |
Norton Antivirus™ Corporate
Edition
|
Vulnerability Scanner sends a special token
to UDP port 2967, the default port of Norton Antivirus Corporate
Edition RTVScan. The endpoint with this antivirus product replies using
a special token type. Since Norton Antivirus Corporate Edition communicates
by UDP, the accuracy rate is not guaranteed. Furthermore, network
traffic may influence UDP waiting time.
