Re: [PEN-TEST] WEB Based penetration testing

[Emmanuel Gadaix <emmanuel () RELAYGROUP COM>]

Just a personal opinion:

Qualys has been started by very skilled individuals with years of 
experience in security. Many of their team members have years of hardcore 
penetration testing experience.

Their product, basically a web-based vulnerability scanner, is quite a good 
one. Unlike commercial scanners, it doesn't require any installation or any 
maintenance. The QualysGuard attack engine is updated constantly with all 
the recent vulnerabilities, including non-public ones.

Just my two cents.
