Hi John,

A penetration testing report is more than an extract of outcome from Nessus or MBSA. It is  more important to know what 
is the defination of Penetration Testing or rather what is the scope. A decent report should have the tests has been 
contacted,the vulnerabilities that are found and exploits if any. More refined form of the PT is VA which will have 
other aspects covered like social engineering, remediations, etc.

Regards,
Farhaan
