The program reveals the identified vulnerabilities in a table, offers detailed information about each one, and displays the date and time, identified and exploitable items, as well as IP range that was scanned.

What’s more, you can export the report to HTML file format, copy it to the clipboard or email it via your default client.

In conclusion, ScanNow UPnP delivers a straightforward software solution for helping you identify exploitable devices. The tool is only able to detect security flaws in the UPnP protocol so it cannot fix the problems.
