My two shiny centvos --- I would use Nessus, its free, there is a port to Windows, you can write you own plugins, I've seen tenable fix fail postives in a day, if you want to pay for the plug in feed its only 1200 dollars US. if you pay for the plugin feed you can use the compliance checks, Tenable has pre configured checks you can download or you can write them yourself. check it out, www.nessus.org I'm not a employee of Tenable Security, I've tried all of the others... Foundscan, retina, ISS, Satan, Saint, etc and I still personnel like Nessus. -------------- Original message ---------------------- From: "Deepak Parashar" <deep231982@gmail.com>
Uzair, I would to say to go for Foundstone-I have worked on this solution for long and it's really good product for vuln. assessment if designed correctly and have good reporting feature as well, it'll give you options to drill down to dll versions and gives you liberty to create your own tests as well........... other best option would be Retina.... -DP http://www.linkedin.com/in/deepakparashar http://deepakparashar.blogspot.com/ "Vision is the art of seeing the invisible"...Jonathan Swift On 6/4/07, Uzair Hashmi <uzair@kse.com.pk> wrote:Hello list, I have been evaluating an automated vulnerability assessment software, havefound two of them better for the organizational needs.
