Hello Andy,

There are couple of Open source vulnerability scanners. Some of them
are as follows:

1. Nessus -- http://www.nessus.org/download/

2. Asmodeus Network Security scanner for Win NT 4.0 --

I had a question and was looking for some information pertaining to it. I have no doubt that this has been covered in the past, but I can't find any emails with it right now.


I'm looking for a good vulnerability scanner that I can run from a single workstation/server. I would like somewhat detailed reports about what patches are missing and if Anti-Virus is installed. I know there are many solutions out that can be purchased but I'm wondering what free solutions exist and how well they stand up to paid for solutions.


If anyone has any information on or white papers about any solutions let me know.


Thanks!

Andy
