Hey everyone,
Just a follow up to my last enquiries
So, is this already possible OpenVAS 9 Beta ?
I am actually curious because I am writing an application
that would send queries about vulnerabilities to the NVT cache.
Another possibility is if the central repository has a REST interface?
Can anyone offer some suggestions on the possibility/options i.e. for
querying the OpenVAS NVT Cache
from other applications.
Many thanks.
