Dynamically iOS vulnerability scan

[PLC]

Hi there,

I was recently tasked to keep an eye out on our ios versions and coodinate upgrades for those that have vulnerabilities. Is there a enterprise software that can run a scan on ios  across the network for ios vulnerabilities? 

I have solarwinds and created a dashboard with all network equipment ios and will be manually checking bugs on cisco bug checker.

Thanks Brad, I actually tried this now and so far I see some expired warranties and EOL but havent found anything so far for iOS version and vulnerbilities which is a good thing.  If there was a vulnerabilitie or known bug with ios version will the advisor tell you?

Yes. It would show when you go to "View Devices" and also send you a weekly summary via email.
