RE: Canned audits

["Eyal Udassin" <eyal () swiftcoders com>]

Hello Rob,

If I understood you correctly, you're actually in need for 2 things:
1. Methodology - Take a look at OSTMM from ISECOM. It's a thorough
methodology for testing applications and networks.
2. Software - If you'll take a look at the mailgroup history you'll find
many previous discussions about "the ultimate audit toolkit". I personally
prefer the Auditor LiveCD.

Subject: Canned audits

Hi All,
 
We have had many audits in the past by 3 party vendors. My company is
finally interested in performing some of these audits in house and a little
more frequently than the annual 3rd party audits.
 
My question is, is there a software package, a "canned" audit that can be
performed? Basic info gathering questions regarding authentication controls,
network documentation(how and where it is stored), question that should be
asked regarding wireless AP and other basic security questions?
