www.securityfocus.com is awesome
www.wbglinks.net has links to heaps of great sites and is a good site itself
www.packetstormsecurity.org
www.insecure.org < -- nmaps creator's site
www.eeye.com <-- commercial products
i reckon securityfocus is the best .. not only does it have articles on everything security but it also has a heap of mailing lists .. including bugtraq :)
One of my favorite sites, has tons upon tons of freeware/shareware security tools as well as a horde of non-security-related goodies:
www.snapfiles.com
mm.. i like cliche threads, very easy to answer =)
im not big on read security news unless its some big issue thats mentioned on cnn or some other news website which i normally find under thier tech sections.... but i do normally check microsoft.com and symantec.com for news =)
http://www.symantec.com/index.htm <---- maker of norton line of products, has to update to info on virii and etc
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/Security/default.mspx <----- maker of greatest OS ever ( ;) ), has news on latest security things
Let's not forget Jupiter Media's Enterprise IT Planet ;)
My favorite security testing site by far has to be
