Madison,
     See, thats the challenge. I am not looking for a tool that does 
strict vulnerability assessments. I am looking for a tool that will do 
an automated vulnerability assessment and then automated attacks 
against those vulnerabilities. Core Impact has such a tool and it is 
well worth the money. In fact, I already have that in my to-purchase 
list. I am now searching for free tools however and haven't found 
anything.

     My goal is to identify tools that have a high ROI... free == the 
higest. Never the less, automation can only be used a limited amount as 
it reduces quality and accuracy.... I know this.

  I've looked at BidiBLAH (enfaces on the BLAH).  Their product does
nothing more than take the results from
Nessus, Metasploit and such, then cram them all together in a easy to
understand format for your boss.
BidiBLAH IMHO is not a vulnerability assessment tool, rather a reporting
tool.  If anyone can correct me
please do, since at one point I was in contact with BidiBLAH sales
asking what I got for $10,000.00 outside
Of the reporting?  Their answer, well let's just say I'm still waiting.

My two cent, Nessus.  It's cheap, effective, and probably the most
supported network vulnerability assessment
tool on the market.
