Doesn't actually review the Qualys scanner, so it's
hardly a fair reference point, Qualys didn't qualify
because they either offer scans from their facility or
from their appliance. Also Foundstonce weren't covered
- probably because the reviewers didn't want to
dedicate half a rack to the gear that Foundscan
requires.

But, considering that Qualys claims twice the
detections of ISS and Nessus, I wouldn't be surprised
if nessus and ISS would come in second in a direct
comparison.

Infor Secirity did do a seperate review of the Qualys
Box -

- I'm amazed a box that small can do what they claim.
