I understand that there are not many vendors yet capable of doing IPv6 vulnerability scanning. What is being
recommended for those machines that are handling cc data, it is recommended they be NATed and given an IPv4 address
until more vendors have caught up with IPv6. If you do have a vendor who states they are capable of doing IPv6
scanning, it may be best to get some type of formal understanding and contractual wording from them.

Not True. It may mean you have to change your scheduling for performing scanning if you have large network segments,
but it can definitely be done.

I attended a IPv6 seminar last week and am wondering if I heard something correctly. This did not register with me
until after the seminar and since the seminar I have been looking for an email address for Johannes Ullirich (the
instructor), but have not found one, and asked a few people around here about this. I have not been able to get a
half-way-confident answer so I am bringing the question here.
I think I heard that on an IPv6 network, you can not be PCI compliant because (I think) the size of the address space
makes it impossible to scan in a timely manner, as required.
Does this question make sense ? Any comments/thoughts for me ?
