Hello, Steve,
Not sure if you are interested in a commercial product, but since you
mentioned Nessus, you may want to check out our Lightning Proxy
and Lightning Console products from Tenable Network Security. The
Lightning Proxy allows you to run many Nessus scanners at the same
time for very fast scans of very large networks. The Lightning Console
allows you to control the scans and distribute the results on a per IP
basis for multiple people in multiple organizations. It also receives IDS
logs from several IDS solutions like Snort and Dragon, so you can
distribute those results as well. The console also does vulnerability
correlation. For example, if you get a Snort event for a system that is
vulnerable to a particular attack, the Console will email all of the owners
of the systems.
We're just entering BETA testing now, but there is good information
on our web site. Check out www.tenablesecurity.com
