Recon is an SSL audit tool, checking for common, certificate-related errors in SSL-enabled services. Provide it a list of SSL services for which you are responsible, it runs them periodically, a Recon will warn you of impending certificate expirations, mismatched certificate names or unavailable services.
Requirements:
· Recon is written in Java and uses no native methods (for example: no JNI calls), and should work on any OS running Java2, v1.4.1 or later (For more information on Java2, please see http://java.sun.com.)
· Other (non-Sun) JDK implementations of the v1.4 family may work.
· Brandxdev has successfully run stub tests for Recon under Sun Solaris 8/Sparc and RedHat Linux 9/i386.
· If you successfully run Recon using another vendor's JDK/JSSE implementation or under any other OS/hardware combination, please contact Brandxdev using the contact info above.
What's New in This Release:
· Recon now supports exclusions from the global proxy list, similar to a web browser. Details are in the README file.
· resolved a special case when parsing the service list, which caused a fatal XML/character set exception
· Recon now supports proxy authentication; see the README doc for details.
· Some proxies/services return HTTP 1.1 status even though Recon explicitly requests 1.0. Recon now does a more intelligent job of checking this return
· value, so the 1.1 status does not confuse it.. changed Recon from "executable jar" format back to free-form class format. The former requires that an
· application be self-contained (e.g. it ignores the classpath, using only the autoloaded JRE/JDK classes and those inside the JAR), so if the JavaMail
· classes were not installed as JDK extensions, the app would claim it couldn't find those classes.
· Tightened up the XML parsing of the service list. other
· fixed a typo in the docs concerning how to run Recon from the commandline. (The wrapper script had the proper syntax, but the doc did not.)
