I surely hope they're beating anyone in terms of pricing and support, as
they use Nessus without giving anything back to the community.

I can also see on their whitepaper that they bundle Nessus "with
proprietary extensions", so I assume they are in pure violation of the
GPL - I'll probably have to investigate that.
