Symantec NetRecon

Continuous Scan intrusion detection uses one or more LANsurveyor maps as the baseline network environment. When Continuous Scan is active, LANsurveyor scans the appropriate network ranges and looks for nodes that appear on the network.

Continuous Scan gives you the option of authenticating newly found network nodes. One of the methods Continuous Scan uses to authenticate is Symantec's NetRecon vulnerability assessment software. NetRecon can be use to discover vulnerabilities and ensure compliance of the newly found nodes. If the new node fails authentication, Continuous Scan identifies the node as Unauthenticated and takes the actions you specify in Continuous Scan Options.
