Re: Distributed Vulnerability Scanners

Hi Greg
Thanks for responding to my query
I visited the Qualys website and it refers to providing a service. I was also under the impression that Qualys whilst a managed service provider also offered the appliance for use wholly by the customer. If we're correct in this assumption any idea where I can find the info.

The dark side (Marketeers) have ravished both the nCircle and Qualys websites to such a degree that it is hard to find technical detail amidst all the hype, especially regarding how they manage their scanning agents remotely. (though after a week on this one, I'm starting to become web blind)

Just to highlight to the list my original mail was looking for tools that could be used by a managed service in a distributed fashion NOT for the managed services themselves.

take care
