Thanks everyone who replied to the original email and tested out the Inprotect software. Thanks for the feedback. Software worked for some of you, for some it didn't. It is beta, so there are some bugs, which are being fixed and new features added to improve the software. If you had liked the software, I encourage you to upgrade to the latest release. Version 0.17 includes bug fixes reported in 0.16 release. It also has a new feature called "Intelligent" scan, which may speed-up traditional Nessus scanning. Internal test shows Nessus scan performance increase by 1.5 - 14 times per system scanned. "Intelligent" scan is achieved by performing full vulnerability scan against a system to determine vulnerabilities. The following ("Intelligent") scans will be performed based on results of the full scan, where only previously detected vulnerabilities will be verified and all new and modified Nessus plugins will be executed. (Sort of differential scan.) Thanks again, Alex Zimin, CISSP alex () inprotect com
