Subject: Vuln Scanner

I have a client that states in his RFP that we run nessus, and at least
one other vulnerability scanner to compare the output.

 

Does anyone here know of an inexpensive vulnerability scanner, that:

 

A)      Is as effective as nessus.

B)      Doesn't cost nearly as much as say ISS or SAINT (free would be
good).

C)      Doesn't use nessus plugins (like x-scan).
