Northwest Performance Software, Inc. today announces the release of NetScanTools Pro 10.3, an all-in-one network discovery and information gathering toolkit used by network administrators, security specialists, network training instructors and law enforcement investigators. This release updates several databases and adds new features like support for SNMPv2c.
NetScanTools Pro is used to research IPv4 addresses, hostnames, domain names, email addresses, or URLs automatically or with manual tools. Easy to use Automatic tools are favored by the investigative and law enforcement communities for gathering information from multiple tool sources to produce a clear and concise HTML report. Manual tools are favored by network administrators and other advanced users who need to have greater control over the parameters for each specific tool. Manual tools include many additional tools beyond those used for the Automatic mode reports.
NetScanTools Pro can be used for security testing by using one or more of the scanning tools like Port Scanner, ARP Sweep, NetScanner (ping sweep) or one of the specialized tools like Packet Generator. NetScanTools Pro assists the network administrator in discovering information about their networks with tools that find IPv4 devices through a number of both active and passive means like Promiscuous Mode Scanner or Passive Discovery. An optional tool of interest to network administrators is the new Managed Switch Port Mapping tool that integrates with NetScanTools Pro or can operate as a standalone program.
Specialized advanced forms of Traceroute, Whois and IP to Country Mapping are designed to assist internet crime or computer forensics investigators in tracking IP addresses to responsible parties.
Training providers have found NetScanTools Pro to be especially useful in classroom demonstration of the methods of obtaining data remotely through a variety of protocols and the tools available to work with them.
