RE: distributed scanning

["Talisker" <lists () securitywizardry com>]

Brian,
There was a very recent thread regarding the scanning of a Class A network,
I mentioned that we maintain details on every distributed scanner here
http://www.securitywizardry.com/dist.htm However, it has been a little
neglected of late therefore I would appreciate any information about missing
products that you encounter in your quest.

Cheers
