Assuria Auditor is a system configuration auditor and vulnerability assessment system. Originally developed by March Information Systems as Security Manager, both product and company were acquired by Internet Security Systems (ISS) in 1998. ISS rebranded the product as System Scanner in order to imply a family relationship with its existing Internet Scanner product. In 2005 ISS transferred the product to its current owners, Assuria Ltd, and the product has been rebranded to Assuria Auditor.[1]
