8. Top 3 Questions on MAP
• Is this tool secure?
• MAP requires the user to enter local admin credentials for the client machines and
servers; non-admin user cannot gain access to the machines and will get no results
from the MAP tool.
• MAP encrypts the data traffic from the MAP machine to the assessed server and client
machines.
• MAP does not persist or store any credentials required for WMI to remotely gather
information on the server and client machines.
• How much data traffic do we get?
• A typical network of desktops would see 300kB to 1MB per PC of data traffic
generated by MAP.
• What’s the impact on each computer?
• Very minimal. The MAP tool only pings about 30 machines at any given instance.
