The Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer (abbreviated MBSA) is a tool put out by Microsoft to help analyze security problems in Microsoft Windows. It does this by scanning the system for security problems in Windows, Windows components such as the IIS web server application, and Microsoft Office.

Versions 1.2.1 and below run on Windows 2000, XP, and 2003, provide support for IIS versions 5 through 6, SQL Server 7 and 2000, Internet Explorer 5.01 and above, and Microsoft Office 2000 through 2003. Version 2.0 adds support for Microsoft Office XP and any other software supported by Windows Update.
