SSL Scan 1.8.2 released

SSLScan determines what ciphers are supported on SSL-based services, such as HTTPS. Furthermore, SSLScan will determine the prefered ciphers of the SSL service.

SSLScan requires the GNU C compiler and the OpenSSL library. Both of these are usually installed by default on a number of Linux distributions. Although this program has not been tested on other platforms it should work if the requirements have been met.

In its simplist form, SSLScan can be run with only one parameter, just specify the host to test. SSLScan will default to port 443 if a port is not specified. The following screenshot shows SSLScan being run, testing only the SSLv2 ciphers.
