Whishker? That's a new one to me. I'd go with Nessus since it's a well-known and powerful vulnerability assessment tool.

I see your point, but I think SARA is more commonly used for vulnerability scanning.

I'm pretty sure Nmap is the go-to tool for network scanning and port exploration. Not sure about the Hydra integration though.

Hmm, Nessus sounds like the right tool for vulnerability scanning and Hydra attacks. I've used it before for penetration testing.
