The DNN Security Analyzer is a module aimed at helping you to improve the security on your DNN website
If you are using Dnn 9, do not install this module, the new security analyzer is built in the Persona Bar since Dnn 9.
If you are upgrading a Dnn site to Dnn 9, this module should be uninstalled since the new security analyzer is built in the Person Bar since Dnn 9.
This build automatically applies missing Telerik's security related web.config entries. Upon first load of Security Analyzer, you may see Telerik web.config related warning. The warning should go away after a page refresh.
Often Security Analyzer timed out during first load on sites with larger number of files. We have moved that functionality out. Now, you can click on a button to run that separately. We are seeing running it manually to be not causing any timeouts.
Security Analyzer can warn if your DNN site is using an insecure version of Telerik.Web.UI.DLL. Recently, we released an updated version of this DLL. The Security Analyzer had to be updated as well to register the new version of this assembly.
The following changes went into this release:

The DNN Security Analyzer is a module aimed at helping you to improve the security on your DNN website. This initial version of the module automatically resolves a recently discovered issue with the InstallWizard and provides helpful guidance on other potential configuration issues which might leave your site vulnerable. In addition this release includes the ability to scan your database and files for a specific word or phrase which is useful to help track down defacement issues on your site.
