Are there any devices (computer, switch, router, etc.) witch integrate licensed software like Nessus or Nexpose in a way that you can just drop them in a network and scan that network remote? If so, what are those devices called?

Example: I buy that nice shiny box and I put it in your network and I start to scan your network.

    These are fairly common with vulnerability assessment companies, but tend to be given specific brand names tied to their product offerings (e.g. "Platinum Ultrascanner") rather than a generic term. Also only tend to be offered as part of an ongoing support contract, rather than for one-off purchase, which makes sense - an unsupported third party box on a network is commonly known as a "hole" :-)

I know a few like:

  • Pwn Pro
  • Secpoint Penetrator

But I don't know the exact generic name of those devices and I don't think there is one.
