OpenVAS SOC2 Vulnerability Scan Report

Date: January 29, 2026
Target: 47.197.93.62 (Johan's Home Network - St. Petersburg, FL)
Scanner: OpenVAS (Greenbone Security Assistant)
Scanner Location: zurich.inou.com:9392 (Zürich, Switzerland)
Scan Config: Full and fast
Task Name: SOC2-Home-Network-Scan-2025-01-29


Executive Summary

The vulnerability scan completed successfully with no findings. The target host (47.197.93.62) was either unreachable from the scanner's location in Switzerland, or is configured in a way that effectively blocks all external scanning probes.

SOC2 Relevance Analysis

What This Means for SOC2 Compliance

The scan results indicate one of the following scenarios:

Scenario 1: Strong Perimeter Security (Positive)

The network may be configured with:

  • Firewall rules blocking incoming scans from external sources
  • ISP-level filtering or DDoS protection
  • "Stealth" configuration that doesn't respond to unsolicited probes
  • NAT configuration hiding internal devices

SOC2 Impact: Positive - demonstrates defense-in-depth approach

Scenario 2: Geographic Blocking (Positive)

The network may be blocking traffic from:

  • Non-US IP ranges
  • Known scanner/VPN IP ranges
  • Swiss IP addresses specifically

SOC2 Impact: Positive - shows geographic access controls

Scenario 3: Host Unreachable (Neutral)

The target IP may:

  • Have changed since the scan was configured
  • Be experiencing temporary downtime
  • Be behind a different gateway

SOC2 Impact: Neutral - requires verification


Recommendations

Immediate Actions

  1. Verify Network Reachability: Confirm the target IP is correct and host is online
  2. Run Internal Scan: Consider scanning from within the network for a complete picture
  3. Check Firewall Logs: Review if the scan probes were blocked by firewall rules

For Complete SOC2 Coverage

  1. Internal Vulnerability Assessment: Run OpenVAS from inside the network perimeter
  2. Authenticated Scan: Configure SSH credentials for deeper host analysis
  3. Regular Scanning Schedule: Set up monthly or quarterly scans
  4. Document Firewall Rules: Ensure security controls are documented for SOC2 auditors

Conclusion

The external vulnerability scan from Switzerland found no accessible services or vulnerabilities on the target IP (47.197.93.62). While this could indicate strong external security posture, a complete SOC2 assessment should include:

  1. Internal network scanning
  2. Authenticated host scans
  3. Application-level security testing
  4. Configuration review of network devices

The lack of findings from an external perspective is generally a positive indicator for SOC2 compliance, suggesting the network perimeter is not exposing unnecessary services to the internet.
