Anyone import the nessus scan reports into a MySQL database? If so would you share how you are doing that? Thanks :)
There is a branch in the CVS code called NESSUS_SQL that should provide you a good way to start doing this. The code to automatically add the results in the database from the Nessus server is not yet there but you will see:
a.- database documentation in nessus-core/doc [1]
b.- scripts to translate from .nbe results to SQL orders for the database at nessus-tools/nessus-extract [2]
c.- some preliminary code to modify the Nessus server and have it update the database throught the scan.
[3]
I am aware of other efforts to push nbe results to databases but the schema they use is far from complete (useful at first glance, but not useful in the long term). The schema provided in the CVS might be more complex, it has been developed with and discussed by other Nessus developers so it would be great if other tools used this schema.
Development in the NESSUS_SQL branch has stalled, but I would appreciate help finishing it off.
Best regards
