This is really kool stuff Ed Skoudis and Kevin Fiscus, both SANS instructors, are talking about my parser. I have been working on a new version, I guess this is a sign I need to get working harder:)
Data, Data, Everywhere What to do with Volumes of Nessus Output
I fired my QA department, wait..that is me..ok…here is a good version of the Nessus Parser v20.
Version 20 of the Nessus parser is here. There are a few features I am really excited about. Listed below are all the newly added features.
1. Should work with the Nessus 5.2.4. There may be some issues with this still, but the script does run. If the counts of data are off, please contact me to and send me the .nessus file and I will look at see where data is missing.
2. Fixed the port scanner & informational severities. There is a new tab for port scan results, for the WMI, NETSTAT, and Nessus port scanner.
3. Software inventory 20811, this feature is kind of kludgy, but the installed apps are in a “|” delimited field for each system identified by the plugin.
4. Port scan info, from WMI or Netstat info
5. New Tab for Plugin 54615, Device Type.
6. Added Plugin Output to Scan Info
7. Added new Plugin Families
8. Updated support for PaloAlto Audit
9. Updated Compliance Results
10. Major Revision of the vulnerability tab processing
11. Fix PCIDSS Tab Data.
