We (not me, someone way over my head) paid some "auditing company" to do a
"Security audit" of our network.  What they handed us was a Nessus report
printout. (www.nessus.org).  The UNIX admins groaned and said "we could
have saved you whatever you paid them.." but they were a BIG NAME COMPANY..

It was full of stuff like "this system is running NFS".  We were like 
"no shit."
