OpenVAS Scanner is the scanner component of Greenbone Community Edition and serves as a full-featured vulnerability scanning engine. It executes a continuously updated feed of Vulnerability Tests to identify security weaknesses across systems and services. The scanner is also used within Greenbone Enterprise appliances, which reflects its role in broader vulnerability management workflows. It can be built and installed from source, integrated with other GVM modules, or deployed through Greenbone’s container-based options. ...

...It can also be extended with custom Go plugins for more advanced detection logic, crawling, screenshots, and additional scanner behavior. It is most useful for authorized vulnerability validation, rapid triage, and security teams that already work with the xray ecosystem.

...Because it relies on Shodan’s free API, it can scan quickly without directly contacting targets in its default mode. The project emphasizes speed, with support for scanning large numbers of hosts per second. Smap can provide service and version fingerprinting, vulnerability detection, and results in formats such as XML, greppable, normal, JSON, and custom output. It is useful for authorized reconnaissance where fast external visibility matters, while users should remember that passive results may be delayed or incomplete compared with active scanning.

Zeus-Scanner is an advanced reconnaissance utility designed to simplify web application reconnaissance for security testing. It combines URL parsing, search engine querying, crawling, proxy support, and vulnerability assessment workflows in one tool. The scanner can work with multiple search engines, extract URLs from Google ban and webcache URLs, and parse robots.txt or sitemap.xml files. It also supports proxy configurations, Tor proxy compatibility, and Tor browser emulation for flexible routing during authorized assessments. Zeus-Scanner includes checks for issues such as XSS, SQL injection, clickjacking, exposed admin panels, port scanning, whois lookup, and header protection. ...
