As leaders in database vulnerability research, NGS Software has some excellent audit and assessment tools available for database installations. You can check them out at:
www.ngssoftware.com

Word on the street is that some dude named "Tim Mullen" or some such just started working with them, and he seems to be a nice enough guy, so I'll go out on a limb and recommend NGS as well ;)

Subject: Database pen-testing tools


List members,

Does anyone have some suggestions or experience with database-specific
pen-testing tools that you would recommend? I am by no stretch of the
imagination a DBA (I run at the first sign of the words "Relational
Database") so tools that don't require a large amount of DBA-ish background
to use to their full potential would be of particular interest.

The database testing market seems to be growing rapidly now and some
recommendations of tools to look at would be useful. I've played around with
NGSSquirrel, AppSec, have experience with some Oracle-specific tools of
course...and ran into a new player in the market (Securno) at InfoSec
Europe. Just wondering what other players are out there that are effective
or you've played with.
