Dan,
It sounds like you mean you want a pre-installed OS with penetration testing
and auditing tools? You may want to look into some of the security-oriented
linux distros which may suit your needs. They would provide you with the
"tricked-out" tools and, in the case of the Live CD distros, wouldn't
necessarily need to replace your existing daily-use OS of choice. Some of
the more security-focused distributions are quite well put together with a
full complement of forensics, pen-test, and auditing tools.

Also,

Environment Live CD distro.
HTH,
Erin Carroll
