Re: Webcams

You could maybe query WMI via vbs, perl, WMI, nessus, etc.

You could query the filesystem or registry for installed camera software.

query registery for usb devices.

If you knew what model of camera was being used, it would ne easier :)
, yea, i know...


FYI..
The nessus-users list would be a good place to ask.

Sometimes this list(pen-test) reacts differently to the 'I want to
search my network for stuff' questions.
