    Tenable discusses the Nessus 3 release
    by Federico Biancuzzi
    2005-11-24

    SecurityFocus interviews Ron Gula to get a glimpse of Tenable's upcoming
    free (but closed-source) Nessus 3 vulnerability scanner. The discussion
    looks at license changes, community involvement, daemon security, new
    features, GPL open-source versus free, NASL, and more.
