Incompetent? Those are rather harsh words. Obviously you don't know
me.  Have you ever tried scanning an entire fortune 100 company with
every exploit known to man on a daily basis?

If you had, you would most likely be out of a job right now. That
might explain your angst.

I guess your remedy is to take (Name favorite commercial scanner) and
hit the "Check All" button and go wild eh? :-)

Have fun Mr. Security Pro.

Actually, this top 20 list has helped me. It gives me the ability
to scan my entire network for attacks most likely to be automated
or used by script kiddies. Thats a huge help. And time saver.


Mister, if you only scan your network for attacks that SANS blessed,
you are incompetent and should hand your job over to someone who knows
what he is doing.  Sorry to be so blunt.
