If you're linux-savvy (or willing to try), check out Nessus
(www.nessus.org) . You need to download it and compile it, but I
figured it out after a couple days of playing around, knowing just
enough Linux/Unix to be dangerous. I think it's one of the best
vulnerability scanners out there, and the price is right (FREE!).

Subject: Ethical Hacking sources

I've been prepping for my lab for the last several months, and was just
given a new role at work, which is web server security. With all the
talent and knowledgeable people on this list, could you provide me some
recommendations on some really good ethical hacking books? I did a
search on Amazon, but I thought maybe someone has run across a really
good book or source that they would be willing to share. I would be
looking along the lines of web penetration testing or anything that
would help evaluate and REPAIR any security issues on the perimeter.
 
thx all
