PBNJ 2.02

PBNJ - A suite of tools to monitor changes on a network over time.

PBNJ is a network suite to monitor changes that occur on a network over time. It does this by checking for changes on the target machine(s), which includes the details about the services running on them as well as the service state. PBNJ parses the data from a scan and stores it in a database. PBNJ uses Nmap to perform scans.

PBNJ 2.0 is completely different from PBNJ 1.0. The most drastic change is that PBNJ 2.0 stores the information from a scan in database. It also has queries that can extract the information that is most useful to the user. When the user wants to extract information, PBNJ extracts the information into a Perl data structure, so there can be multiple output methods such as tab, csv and html. PBNJ 2.0 can also accept input from Nmap in XML format. This allows PBNJ to be more flexbile than version 1.0.
