[ad]<\/p>\n
A new version of SSA (Security System Analyzer) has been released – version 1.5.1.<\/p>\n
SSA is a scanner based on OVAL, the command line tool provided by MITRE is not very easy to use so the guys at Security Database decided to write a GUI to make it simple to use and understand and then free the security testers community to take advantage of it.<\/p>\n

\n – Corrected bug in EntityComparator::ParseVersionStr(). Added error checking to the function to enusre that the input version strings are in a valid format.

+ SSA now supports VISTA definitions.<\/p>\n
+ Added Menu Help

\n -OVAL Concept documentation : link to OVAL FAQS.
