Security Applications that run on Usb Drives

Is this my USB story week, lot´s of articles about USB drives already and more come out faster than I can type. So, I´ve found this article at watchyourend about “hacking” applications that can be run independently on usb drives. I prefer to name them security applications, all of those applications can be used for good or bad, means security IMHO fits better than hacking.

The author is introducing seven applications: Nmap, Ethereal, Showtraf, TCPDump, Nemesis, John the Ripper and Netpass. Unfortunatly though he is not linking to the tools but only describing them. That means a little googling has to be done on your site to find this applications. Not a big problem though.
