| The open-source vulnerability scanner. Features A complete analysis of your security level # Up-to-date security vulnerability database We mostly focus on the developement of security checks for recent security holes.

An RSS feed of all the newest security checks allows you to monitor which plugins are added and when. # Remote AND local security.

The more power you give to Nessus, the quicker it will scan your network. # Plug-ins Each security test is written as an external plugin, written in NASL. This means that updating Nessus does not involve downloading untrusted binaries from the internet. Each NASL plugin can be read and modified, to better understand the results of a Nessus report. # NASL The Nessus Security Scanner includes NASL, (Nessus Attack Scripting Language) a language designed to write security test easily and quickly. NASL plugins run in a contained environment on top of a virtual machine, thus making Nessus an extremely secure scanner. ... |
