My go-to vulnerability scanner

  • April 22, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Nessus has a lot of configuration options that help you identify vulnerabilities quickly and efficiently
This tool is modified on a regular basis to include new CVEs and features. Many features appeal to me, but they are not limited to the following:
scheduled scans, high-speed asset discovery, configuration auditing, target profiling, malware detection, sensitive data discovery, vulnerability analysis etc
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't had any issues with the Nessus tool so far.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I appreciate how nessus upgrades their thread db; they are constantly looking to provide consumers with the most recent threats; however, further email alerts about current threats would be preferable

Nessus Vulnerability Scanning Review

  • April 22, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Nessus Scanning covers almost all the vulnerabilities related to 3rd Party APPs, OS Level vulnerabilities, Container vulnerabilities, MisConfiguration and related issues, etc. I like it being a one stop solution.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a lot of concerns with Nessus Agents. Like, it will require Nessus Relinking, once the agent stops to report to Nessus Manager, Tagging concerns for ephemeral environments where servers are coming up and downs, etc. Its highly recommended for static environments but messy for ephemeral/dynamic environments. Always requires some sort of scripting automation to relink, untag and tag again. Some instances (5-10%) show concerns when Nessus Agents are auth(n) fine but still Nessus Manager fails to recognize the same. These issues need to be raised to Nessus Engineering teams to provided a tool which can check back and forth for Nessus Connections and do the same stuff for us, should not just be an overhead for the customer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problems mostly related to vuln scans. No other Security Vuln. scanner is close to Nessus. Tried some opensource solutions and cloud solutions as well, but no comparison to Nessus.
