A network scanner designed from scratch by three University of Michigan researchers can scan the entire Internet in about 45 minutes. The new system uses a modular approach to scanning to speed the process. The ability to quickly perform customized scans of the Internet will likely result in a “golden age” of vulnerability scanning, says Rapid7’s HD Moore. The bandwidth required to do a scan quickly will likely limit such projects to academic research groups and large corporations, he says. The researchers used the scanner to track systems vulnerable to HTTPS weak key flaw, and discover unadvertised services.”]
