RE: Kaseya

["Kevin Reiter" <KReiter () insidefsi net>]

Actually, the Kaseya "agent" lives on the machine(s) to be monitored by the Kaseya server.  There shouldn't be an 
appliance running anywhere on the LAN, unless they're actually using the product from LPI.  The only appliance that 
would be attached to the LAN would be a server for storing backup images (Kaseya has partnered with Acronis for this.)

As a former MSP who ran the Kaseya application for a number of years (and attended their training), I'm pretty familiar 
with it.  They actually kept security in mind when creating this application, so I'd be interested to see if you come 
up with any findings in your research.

You can view the feature set of the application on their website - http://www.kaseya.com

Hope that helps,
-Kevin

Hello list,
there's this infrastructure tool set for automating managed services,
named Kaseya (proprietary technology).

Basically, the managed-services-provider controls one of his
customers' remote LANs with two intercommunicating "appliances":

  * a Kaseya dedicated server located at the MSP data center; and

  * a "probe" equipment at the remote LAN.

The audit team to which I belong is about to examine the probe-featured LAN.
Right now, we're researching whether this "solution" can cause the LAN
some weaknesses;
the resulting research's report is going to shape the logical tests.

So, the question is (I guess):
does anyone know of any Kaseya-enhanced LAN security implication/vulnerability?

Thank you,
yours sincerely,
