I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest Nessus? You can still find
an older version that's free if the newest is completely commercial
but I believe even the latest version is accessible for "home" users.
That also includes access to their feed on new vulnerabilities. Don't
quote me on the price but it's worth checking out.

Prove to peers and potential employers without a doubt that you can actually do a proper penetration test. IACRB CPT 
and CEPT certs require a full practical examination in order to become certified.
