Introduction to Nessus TutorialAdded by Papergrl
Description:
Nessus is public domain software released under the GPL. Nessus is designed to automate the testing and discovery of known security problems. Allowing system administrators to correct problems before they are exploited. Historically, many in the corporate world have frowned on such public domain software, instead choosing "supported" products developed by established companies. Usually these packages cost thousands of dollars and the license is based upon the number of IP addresses scanned. However, many in the corporate world are now starting to realize that public domain software, such as Nessus, NMap, Apache, and MySQL, is often superior to similiar comercial products.
