thanks Ron...
i was just saying that for a company that has above 100 workers (or
servers/worksattions) is infinitely easier (and feasible) to pay your
company $1200 a year to audit their network. a single user as i am that
uses your tool sporadically for about 3 machines total is way too much.
yet by default i'm placed in the same category as the aformentioned
company. in your business mind that can be 'very competitive in a wide
variety of markets'. in my 'local market' is way too much.
that's all.
and you are probably correct about the pci features - they might have
not been available in the open version of the application. i was left
with the impression that some of them were under the "experimental
scripts". of course i might be wrong there too. but i saw the video that
you sent me when i registered for the 'home' version. so i naturally got
exited and looked for those first after the plugin update. imagine my
surprise...
anyway.. i appreciate your clarification on the pricing. thank you.

thanks Alex... i'm aware of the self-assessment questionnaire. i had to
deal with it a few times. i just ratter not deal with it too much
anymore. it's mostly a bureaucratic process to which i developed a
strong allergy. anything that can ease the symptoms is more attractive.
i just don't like when another useful open source tool goes proprietary
and everybody - big fat corporations and single users alike - are thrown
in the same $1200 dollar/year bucket.
anyway... there is nothing i can about this now.
Hi there,
Just for the record, the Nessus ability to perform PCI auditing and
much of the features that were added to Nessus over the past few years
by Tenable were never an open source project that was closed.
And although I appreciate your insight on our pricing, $1200/year is
very competitive in a wide variety of markets.
