About OpenVAS

OpenVAS, the scanner inside the Greenbone Community Edition, performs authenticated and unauthenticated vulnerability testing across network and application protocols using a large feed of network vulnerability tests, with scheduling, reporting and remediation tracking.

Strengths

  • Large community vulnerability feed with authenticated scanning
  • Scheduling, reporting and tracking included rather than bolted on

Limitations

  • The community feed lags the paid enterprise feed
  • Installation and feed synchronisation are involved
