You're best off doing some scanning on your own, if only to be
slightly edumucated on such practices. There are great free tools out
there too:

nmap - http://nmap.org/
nessus - http://www.nessus.org/nessus/intro.php

I've had access to five- and six-figure security assessment platforms
and toolkits and can say emphatically that these two, combined with a
bit of reading on your part, are just as effective.
