Has anyone noticed a recent trend towards cheaper pen-test suites? E.g. SAINTexploit and CORE Impact Essential http://www.saintcorporation.com/products/penetration_testing/saint_exploit.html http://www.corest.com/content/core-impact-essential-overview Has anyone used these or do you plan on using them? I did a little statistics on the CVE's of the now 4 major exploitation suites (Impact, SaintExploit, Canvas, and Metasploit) and it appears that over 60% of the exploits are unique to one suite. This means that there is only 40% overlap. It also appears that Canvas has the most unique exploits, followed by SaintExploit then Metasploit. About 80% of Impact's exploits are featured in the other suites.
