We have done vulnerability scans including the AS400s on our network with no problem. The TCP stack on AS400 servers is really pretty robust. As far as books, we have a book that I use regarding AS/400 security, it has helped me a bunch: Implementing AS/400 Security by Wayne Madden 2nd edition, copyright 1995, Duke Press ISBN: 1-882419-20-0 I hope this helps. --- Bob Woods IT Security Administrator Atlantis Casino Resort Spa * Reno bwoods () atlantiscasino com (775) 825-4700 x3549 -----Original Message----- From: listbounce () securityfocus com [mailto:listbounce () securityfocus com] On Behalf Of Jon Kibler Sent: Tuesday, February 12, 2008 12:12 PM To: pen-test () securityfocus com Subject: AS400 Net Recon Hi, I have a client with AS400s on their LAN. They want a vulnerability scan, but having been burned in the past, I want to ask before doing: Are there any issues with scanning (nmap, nessus, etc.) AS400s? While I am at it, any good information on AS400 security? I see a few corporately published books for sale on the net about AS400 security, but I don't want to drop a couple of grand for a book by some organization I am not familiar with. Any help appreciated. Jon K. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This list is sponsored by: Cenzic Need to secure your web apps NOW?
