OpenVAS Description
OpenVAS serves as a comprehensive vulnerability scanning tool, offering both unauthenticated and authenticated assessments, as well as support for a wide range of internet and industrial protocols at various levels. The scanner is designed to be optimized for extensive scanning operations and features a robust internal programming language that allows users to create customized vulnerability tests. It acquires its vulnerability detection tests from a continually updated feed with a rich historical background. Since its inception in 2006, OpenVAS has been developed by Greenbone Networks, and it is an integral component of their commercial product line, the Greenbone Enterprise Appliance, which includes several other Open Source modules for enhanced vulnerability management. With its extensive capabilities, OpenVAS empowers organizations to bolster their security posture effectively.
