I noticed a free online tool to audit your (your customer's) website. You can find and fix the back hole or weakness.

Awesome online tool @CarySun. Tested mine and scored A+. By the way. OpenVAS (opensource) can flag SSL related issues as well. Being  long time I used Nexus, but it can also detect vuls in libraries and components that can affect SSL/TLS implementations

Guys beware, running a Vulnerability Assessment (even a light one) on a customer site requires permission to be run. :)

 

BTW, the market leader is Nessus, it’s a super complete suite (not open source), while Greenbone OpenVas is another great solution as mentioned @Iams3le 

Personally I prefer BurpSuite, but for a direct interaction.

Oh, and there’s Shodan to check if that IP has know vulnerabilities.

I used Nessus back in the day. Did it not change from open source to proprietary? of am I confusing this with something else?

I think you’re confusing with OpenVas :) there’s a community version, but the main one is now proprietary! The old “gvc” via terminal!

I use the Qualys scanner every time I update a certificate on a public site.  Another tool that I use in conjunction with this is IISCrypto to disable/enable the appropriate SSL/TLS protocols, weed out weak ciphers and set cipher priorities without having to dig into the registry manually.

Also, don’t forget to check the “Don’t show the results on the boards” checkbox.  Sounds like a great way to publish weak websites if you ask me.

Used that when I tested my blog.  Got a B across the board so need to look at CloudFlare which I use with it.

I just ran it on mine….aside from figuring out why my domain doesn’t like to pull up when not using a www. in front (it’s DNS of course), I’m happy with my result.

Here is a comprehensive article on Burpsuite.
