Network Inventory Project developed by Guilherme Polo, as our Summer of Code student during 2007. It is a great tool to keep track of your hosts inside a network, and keep an eye closely on changes. It becames really easy to detect if a new port has suddenly appeared in your network and becames very handy when that port was openned by a trojan or other harmful software. Interface Editor Project developed by Luís Bastião Silva, as our Summer of Code student during 2007. It is handy when you want to customize your Profile Wizard or Profile Editor, adding combinations of nmap options or even adding brand new nmap options that weren't available by the time Umit was released. The great news is that now you can do that graphically without the need of editing any text file by hand or understand complex configurations.

It is a web interface reproducing our beloved desktop version of Umit, intended to help network administrators to keep an eye on their networks whenever they're away from it without the need of using any other tool than a regular web browser. Forget about ssh, vpns, etc. Just take you're grand mother's pc with any browser and you're set to see if something is wrong in your network during saturday's lunch at her house.
