The Nessus project aims to provide to the internet community a free, powerful, up-to-date and easy to use remote security scanner
The Nessus Security Scanner is a security auditing tool. It makes possible to test security modules in an attempt to find vulnerable spots that should be fixed. It is made up of two parts: a server, and a client. The server/daemon, nessusd, is in charge of the attacks, whereas the client, nessus, provides the user a nice X11/GTK+ interface.
These are the plugins for nessus
