ToneLoc The Subnet Grid Report introduced in Rumble 1.7.0 is copied from one of my favorite security tools of time, ToneLoc! ToneLoc (the tone locator) is MS-DOS wardialer written by Minor Threat and Mucho Maas that was released in the early 90s. ToneLoc was (and sometimes still is) one of the best ways to sweep telephone ranges to find accessible modems. One of the coolest features is ToneMap; a 100x100 pixel grid display of a 10,000 telephone number block.

Overview Version 1.7.0 of Rumble Network Discovery is live with big updates to reporting. The Analysis Reports introduced in version 1.6.2 are now joined by a new Subnet Grid Report, linked off the main Subnets Report under the Explore menu. The Query Library has been updated with small tweaks and new built-in query for finding expired TLS certificates, supported by improvements to the scan engine. The Rumble backend has been upgraded to support our larger customers as well as all of our new Starter Edition users.

Rumble Starter Edition is now available as a free tier! This option supports many features of our paid subscriptions, including Inventory, Reports, the Export API, SSO via SAML/2.0, MFA via WebAuthn, and access to a limited version of the command-line Rumble Scanner. We want to share the magic of great network discovery with consultants, home users, small businesses, bug bounty hunters, and researchers. Trial accounts start as a 21-day evaluation of our Professional Edition and automatically convert to the Starter Edition after the trial period ends, with no credit card or business email needed.

Overview Today’s update comes with two significant features: Analysis Reports and the Query Library. This work brings practical analytic capabilities to the inventory data and makes it easier than ever to create and share custom queries with your team and the wider community. Analysis Reports Analysis Reports are now accessible via the Explore link in the navigation menu. This section includes the three existing reports (Topology, Subnets, Bridges) and introduces two new ones.

Overview Version 1.6.0 of Rumble Network Discovery is live with support for configurable scan grace periods, data retention policies, additional protocol support, enhanced fingerprint coverage, new search keywords, and much more. Scan Grace Periods Starting with the 1.3.2 release, Rumble would automatically cancel a scheduled or recurring scan if the intended agent was not available after four hours. This fixed grace period prevented scans from stacking up in the case of a slow scan or offline agent, but it didn’t work for all use cases, and this is now configurable at the scan level.
