Shadow Database Scanner (Shadow Database Scanner - database scanner) is a new generation of hi-tech software that performed greatly in the 20th century and remains on the front line in the new millennium! Shadow Database Scanner has been developed to provide a secure, prompt and reliable detection of a vast range of security system holes.

After completing the system scan, Shadow Database Scanner analyses the data collected, locates vulnerabilities and possible errors in server tuning options, and suggests possible ways of problem solution. Shadow Database Scanner employs a unique system security analysis algorithm based on a patented "intellectual core".

Because of its unique architecture, Shadow Database Scanner is the world's only security scanner able to detect faults with MiniSql. It is also the only commercial scanner capable of tracking more than 2, 00 audits per system.

Currently, the following SQL Servers are supported: MSSql, Oracle, IBMDB2, MiniSql,MySQL, and Lotus Domino.

Because of a fully open (ActiveX-based) architecture any professional with knowledge of VC++, C++ Builder or Delphi may easily expand the capabilities of the Scanner. ActiveX technology also enables the system administrators to integrate Shadow Database Scanner into practically any ActiveX supporting product.

As Shadow Database Scanner provides a direct access to its core, you may use the API (for a detailed information please refer to API documentation) to gain full control to Shadow Database Scanner or to change its properties and functions.

Being not a professional programmer, but having some basic knowledge of computer networks and having found a new security breach you may either contact Safety-Lab directly or use the BaseSDK wizard: it will guide you through the whole process of new audit creation. BaseSDK also lets you add more than 95% of new audit types.

The Rules and Settings Editor will be essential for the users willing only to scan the desired ports and services without wasting time and resources on scanning other services.

Flexible tuning lets system administrators manage scanning depth and other options to make benefit of speed-optimized network scanning without any loss in scanning quality.

Another unique capability of the Scanner concerns the possibility of saving detailed scan session log not only in traditional HTML format (which is available in 99% other scanners) but also in XML, PDF, RTF and CHM (compiled HTML) formats.

The new interface is both user-friendly and simple to use and it has been optimized to provide even easier access to program's main functions. Managing Shadow Database Scanner options is also made simpler: all the key elements of the program interface have bubble help windows with a concise description of their function.

The Update Wizard provides the timely updates of program's executive modules with the most up-to-date security information, guaranteeing a solid protection for your system and its high resistance to malicious attacks.

Safety-Lab has also accompanied its new product with the direct access to its Internet Security Expert service and a daily-updated Download Zone.
