Re: Network Mapping Software

[Ron Gula <rgula () tenable com>]

Are you concerned with connectivity and routing or do you
care about access control? There are tones of great net
mapping products out there like Lumeta, but if you really
need to see which ports are open between enclaves, you
either need to scan or sniff the connection, like with our
Tenable solution (distributed Nessus and Passive Vulnerability
Scanners), or model the firewall rules with something
like RedSeal.

If they are a Tenable customer, feel free to ping me offline.
This sort of data is collected passively and is pretty easy to
report on which enclaves have access to other enclaves
based on scan results or sniffed traffic.

Subject: [Pauldotcom] Network Mapping Software

All,

Trying to get recommendation on a network mapping software that could help identify unauthorized bridged networks. 
Ideally this would be something capable to identify divergent LANs across the WAN…

Back Story:

The unnamed federal agency has 600+ locations with public and private LANs, but each local LAN is not accountable to 
the other or to other Executive Branch mandates…as such there is a concern that there are unauthorized bridged 
connection to the local LAN. The need is to be able to identify those potential connection in a non-intrusive way.

Any ideas?
