Hi all - I'm looking to hear from anybody who is successfully performing Nessus scans via PacketFence. I'm interested to hear how well it's working for you, what settings you are using and how many endpoints you are able to scan at any given time.
I am wondering about two scenarios: 1. We scan devices we own and can do credentialed scans 2. We scan BYOD and can't do credentialed scans In either case, it seems like a scan of a single host will take ~10 minutes. Based on that, I'm thinking it may be best to get the user registered and on the network before scanning (by using the *Scan after registration* option). I'm also curious how a Nessus scan engine ties into the Nessus Scan security event. Does simply configuring a Nessus scan engine and adding it to a Connection Profile allow for automatic security event triggering (i.e., a vulnerability found during the Nessus scan will be used to automatically trigger the Nessus Scan event)?
