-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Social Engineering may be a little bit tougher with small businesses since a group of 25 users tends to know each other, and what outside vendors usually are.

You know there weaknesses already. Social engineering may be beneficial outside? You can run a network based assessment on the service levels and configuration of shares so on. JP Network Armor - -----Original Message----- From: Billy Dodson [mailto:billy@pmicromart.com] Sent: Tuesday, September 27, 2005 5:34 PM To: pen-test@securityfocus.com Subject: Vulnerability assessment for small business When doing a vuln assessment for a small business (25 PC's, no server) which is using a peer-to-peer windows network, how do you approach this? Say the customer has a firewall...but they don't host any services. All of the PC's have local usernames and passwords that vary from machine to machine. There is no one single administrator account across the board, and you have little time. So you cant run many automated tools to check patch levels and what not because you cant get remote access to the registry. There are no services to be tested from the outside. Do you manually go to each machine and test them individually? Of course you can run null scans on the LAN, but that is not going to provide the depth you need. Any ideas and pointers would be great. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - ------ Audit your website security with Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner: Hackers are concentrating their efforts on attacking applications on your website.
