Re: Pwn Plug and Nessus

I've also gotten requests to run the Passive Vulnerability Scanner during
pen tests (or more exactly, before the pen test) from a variety of folks
who do that sort of thing for a living.

Since it is a sniffer, if you can get it deployed ahead of time, you can get
a great deal of intelligence without impacting anyone and have a very
good sense of your targets and vulns before you start exploiting anything.

Also purehate mentioned another device, i cant remember the name, in one of his talks this year. I saw it on irongeek's 
youtube channel. I think it was his pass the hash like a rockstar talk.

Does anyone have experience remotely running Nessus with something like the Pwn Plug?

I need something small that will reverse SSH back and allow me to remotely launch Nessus scans. I have heard of people 
using the Pwn Plug, but I'm curious as to the performance and accuracy of the scans.
