2023: Product Announcement

Roskomnadzor on the basis of CMU SSOP creates a domestic trusted scanning system that will identify the vulnerabilities of Russian information resources, providing an opportunity to quickly eliminate them. In order to protect Russian systems, it is simultaneously planned to take measures to limit scanning by foreign services of the Russian segment of the Internet, the RKN said in a statement.

ILV creates a "Scanner"

The department noted that information security vulnerabilities are often present in Russian information systems, including sites, database systems, mail servers. Their operation leads to compromise of systems and leaks of personal data.

As specified in Roskomnadzor, by the end of October 2023, the Scanner system is in the process of being created. By this time, CMU SSOP conducted the first scan of 100 critical vulnerabilities as part of the exercise.

Scanning the Runet should help identify open ports and services on IP addresses, as well as identify potential vulnerabilities in services, said Anton Nemkin, a member of the State Duma Committee on Information Policy, Information Technology and Communications. In addition, according to him, reports will be formed describing the identified vulnerabilities, and resource owners will be informed about them. Also, Roskomnadzor and its subordinate structures will be able to control the elimination of identified vulnerabilities and more actively counteract the threat of scanning Russian resources from foreign countries.

Nemkin also cited data, according to which by the end of October 2023 there are 45 million IP addresses in Russia, of which 11.5 million are potentially vulnerable.[1]
