The Windows port of Nessus is called NEWT and is sold by Tenable Security, a company that was at least partially started by the original creator of Nessus, Renaud Deraison. Personally, I have tried NEWT and I am not impressed. Nessus appears to be much better and, of course, is DRASTICALLY cheaper. :) Steve Fletcher Senior Network Engineer, MCSE, Master ASE, CCNA Integrity Technology Solutions Phone: (309)664-8129 Toll Free: (888) 764-8100 ext. 129 Fax: (309) 662-6421 sfletcher () integrityts com Mark Melonson wrote:
Hi all, I'm researching tools, and would like input on, what would be your ultimate toolkit be. I'm attempting to
For a Windows system I would certainly include Cygwin and selected utilities - eg. Perl is a must. There's also a Windows port of dig knocking around which is handy. Cain & Abel is nice in some ircumstances... there's a Windows port of the Nessus /server/ but it's commercial only. (Incidentally - how does that work when Nessus is GPL'd?)... metasploit runs under Cygwin too. Check the insecure.org tools list for other suggestions. http://www.insecure.org/tools.html Finally a selection of 'exploits du jour' is handy but of course these change relatively quickly. cheers \a -- Andrew Simmons Penetration Tester | Security Consultant MIS Corporate Defence Solutions, Ltd. sorry about this!
