I had a demo account with Edgeos.com. Not bad stuff, actually worked
pretty well. Imagine a web based user-friendly nessus front end with
a lot of customizations and some extra reporting options. It was
slick, possibly slick enough to subscribe to if you really want a
periodic check from the outside. I'd recommend it to the right kind
of person, but it's not for everyone. They also have "branding"
ability so that you can re-sell their services if you wish. That'd be
more for you startup security company types, or computer/network
consultants that want to add a little net-sec to their menu, I
suppose.

Samspade.org has always been a mainstay for me. They offer online
web-based tools. If I have access to a Windows laptop, their windows
based tool offers a lot of stuff in a small package that can cut down
the time it takes to do certain pre-vuln-scanning stuff.

Church Of The Swimming Elephant (www.cotse.com) also had some cool
online stuff at one time. I haven't been there in ages. They may
have added or removed stuff since I've been there last. I just did a
quick check to make sure it was still the same site (not a squatter or
something) and nothing more.

Cheers and best of luck!
