April 9th, 2009
Tenable Network Security has announced the release of version 4 of their vulnerability scanner, Nessus. Nessus is a network scanner that can be used to detect potential vulnerabilities on individual systems and networks, preventing remote attackers from gaining access to private data. It can audit a network for individual anti-virus products and ensure that these are running the latest updates.
The 5.0 release now supports multi-threading, improving performance and decreasing the amount of time each scan requires. The ability to create custom XSLT reports based on the scan results has also been added.
