Database scanning

Karthik | Last updated: Aug 12, 2015 01:06PM UTC

Is Burpsuite capable of performing vulnerability scans against databases ? I have seen and there is no option, but just wanted to confirm with the experts. Also, do we have a security standard for databases as we have OWASP/SANS etc for web applications ? Could some one suggest a tool/software that could perform vulnerability scanning against databases ?

Burp cannot scan databases directly, and only interacts with databases through scans via the application layer.
