Web detectives - I need a favour

Please OCUK detectives can you help me

A couple of years ago I used a site that you could input your servers address or URL and it would scan it for what connection ciphers and protocols where available that it would connect on. I think it was a German site and it had a blue aardvark in the top left hand corner. I would love to find it again

Thanks in advance

It's not GRC Shieldsup is it? I remember using that a long time ago!

It's called a port scan. There's lots of online tools to do this for you, eg: http://mxtoolbox.com/PortScan.aspx

If you want something more penetrative (giggity) you'll most likely need to pay a service to do it for you.

Sorry I can't have made myself clear. I am well aware of what it is and my current provider is Qualys.

I was simply after a website that used to use

Possibly but I thought it was German so I'm not sure

Sounds like you're already using the Qualsys checker (here).

Do you mean ServerSniff.net? Looks to have long gone but WBM has the blue creature thingy here
