Domain Scanner: IIS Intel Page
Overview
The IIS Intel page in TRaViS EASM, located under the Domain Scanner section, provides a detailed analysis of Internet Information Services (IIS) servers associated with a specific domain, in this case, example.com. Accessible via the Domain Scanner section in the left navigation menu, this page leverages predefined system queries to identify IIS servers, their versions, and associated vulnerabilities or misconfigurations. Designed for Security Operations Center (SOC) teams, this page helps users uncover potential risks in Windows-based web servers, secure misconfigured assets, and reduce the domain’s attack surface.
Page Layout
The IIS Intel page is structured to deliver clear and actionable insights into IIS server configurations, with a straightforward layout. The page includes:
- Execute System Queries: Allows users to select and execute predefined queries to identify IIS servers.
- Query Results Table: Lists the IIS servers discovered, their versions, and associated details.
- Navigation and Export Tools: Offers options for data management and reporting.
Key Features and Capabilities
Execute System Queries: Query Selection
The top section allows users to select and execute predefined system queries to identify IIS servers and gather intelligence.
- Dropdown Menu:
- Provides a dropdown list of predefined queries (e.g., "LIST IIS Servers INTEL").
- Benefit: Enables users to quickly execute targeted searches for IIS servers without needing to craft custom queries.
- Execute Query:
- Offers a button to run the selected query against the domain.
- Benefit: Automates the process of identifying IIS servers, saving time and ensuring consistency in data collection.
User Value: The Execute System Queries feature simplifies the process of identifying IIS servers by providing prebuilt queries, making it accessible to users of all skill levels.
Query Results Table: IIS Server Findings
The main section of the page features a table listing the IIS servers discovered through the executed query, along with detailed information about each server.
- Columns:
- URL: Lists the URLs associated with IIS servers (e.g., https://spf.cttgroup.com, https://rbc.damasc.gov.in).
- Benefit: Identifies specific endpoints or hosts running IIS, enabling users to assess their configurations and security.
- IIS Version: Displays the version of IIS running on each server (e.g., Microsoft-IIS/8.5, Microsoft-IIS/10.0).
- Benefit: Allows users to check for outdated versions that may be vulnerable to known exploits.
- Third-Party Files: Indicates the presence of third-party files or plugins (e.g., "No Files").
- Benefit: Highlights potential security risks from unverified third-party components, though none are detected here.
- First-Party Files: Indicates the presence of first-party files or custom code (e.g., "No Files").
- Benefit: Helps users assess the security of custom-developed content, though none are detected here.
- Vulnerability Status: Shows the vulnerability status of the IIS server (e.g., "No").
- Benefit: Indicates whether known vulnerabilities are present, though none are detected in this view.
- Bug Type: Displays the type of bug or issue, if any (e.g., blank or N/A).
- Benefit: Provides context on specific issues, though no data is populated here.
- URL: Lists the URLs associated with IIS servers (e.g., https://spf.cttgroup.com, https://rbc.damasc.gov.in).
- Data Examples:
- URLs such as https://spf.cttgroup.com and https://rbc.damasc.gov.in are listed with IIS versions like Microsoft-IIS/8.5 and Microsoft-IIS/10.0.
- All entries show "No Files" for both third-party and first-party files, "No" for vulnerability status, and no bug types identified.
- Benefit: Indicates the presence of IIS servers with specific versions, prompting users to verify patch levels and security configurations, even though no immediate vulnerabilities are detected.
- Features:
- Pagination: Supports navigation through multiple pages of query results (e.g., Previous/Next buttons with 82 total entries).
- Benefit: Ensures scalability for domains with numerous IIS servers.
- Export Options (CSV, Excel, PDF, Print, JSON): Located above the table.
- Benefit: Enables users to export IIS server data for detailed reporting or third-party analysis.
- Pagination: Supports navigation through multiple pages of query results (e.g., Previous/Next buttons with 82 total entries).
User Value: The Query Results Table provides a comprehensive list of IIS servers, their versions, and associated details, helping users identify and secure Windows-based web servers within the domain.
Navigation and Export Tools
The page includes tools for managing and sharing data:
- Export Options (CSV, Excel, PDF, Print, JSON):
- Located above the Query Results Table.
- Benefit: Allows users to generate reports for audits, compliance, or team collaboration.
- Pagination:
- Supports navigation through multiple pages of data (e.g., Previous/Next buttons with 82 total entries).
- Benefit: Ensures scalability for domains with extensive findings.
- Left Navigation Menu:
- Includes links to other TRaViS features (e.g., Dashboard, CVE Intelligence, Domain Scanner).
- Benefit: Provides seamless access to additional tools and views within the TRaViS platform, with the Domain Scanner section expanded to show the Darknet Intelligence page (used for IIS Intel).
User Value: These tools enhance usability by enabling data export, efficient navigation, and integration with other TRaViS features.
Benefits for Security Teams
The IIS Intel page for example.com offers several key benefits:
- IIS Server Detection: Identifies all IIS servers associated with the domain, providing version details for risk assessment.
- Actionable Insights: Highlights IIS versions and potential file exposures, enabling users to secure misconfigured or outdated servers.
- Scalability: Supports pagination and export options, making it easy to manage large datasets of findings.
- Automated Querying: Simplifies the process of gathering IIS intelligence with prebuilt queries, saving time and ensuring consistency.
- Proactive Security: Enables users to address potential vulnerabilities in IIS servers before they can be exploited, reducing the domain’s attack surface.
