If I recall correctly there is no ISO 27K requirements which explicitly mandate 
the usage of vulnerability scanners. However such tool is obviously useful for 
the technical vulnerability management section.

From experience I can tell that commercial vs opensource vulnerability 
scanners, is usually irrelevant. The process surrounding vulnerability 
management usually matters most - keep evidence you are actually doing 
something about vulnerabilities found, and have separate vulnerability and 
patch management programmes.

Hi,

Thank you for your reply. You are so helpful.

How about ISO27001/27002? Is OpenVAS scanning result and report accepted by ISO 
auditor (internal/external scan)? Or is it similar to PCI DSS that depends on 
vendors or solutions instead of software itself?

Again, thank you very much for your time on answering me. Wish God bless you! :)

Best Regards,
Oscar

Hi,
OpenVAS can fullfill PCI DSS requirements for internal scanning *). For 
external scanning ASV certified solution is required **). It's not about 
software,
it's about certification and verified solution.
Any other questions?
*) note:

pci dss:

11.2.3.c Validate that the scan was performed by a qualified
internal resource(s) or qualified external third party and if  applicable, 
organizational independence of the
tester exists (not required to be a QSA or ASV)

Dear all


May I know which compliances OpenVAS is able to fulfill for vulnerability 
scanning (e.g. PCI DSS, ISO27001/27002 etc.)? Our company would like to switch 
from Nessus to OpenVAS and want to know whether they can fulfil the audit 
requirements or not. Thanks.

Best regards
Oscar
