Hi there This is the SSH-based DMI check (bios_get_info_ssh.nasl). Two things that dmidecode returns (at least on Linux boxes) that isn't recorded in the Nessus output are:
Product Name: Serial Number: On HP and Dell boxes, this returns model details and serviceTag/Serial numbers. Adding those to the output would allow us to better use Nessus as an Asset tracking tool, as we are (successfully) starting to use it for Windows. I haven't tested it, but I think changing the line: keys = make_list("Vendor", "Version", "Release Date"); to keys = make_list("Vendor", "Version", "Release Date"," Product Name", " Serial Number"); would be all it takes?
