OpenVAS Scanner
This repository contains the scanner component for Greenbone Community
...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. The repository includes the current C-based scanner implementation as well as a Rust project intended to simplify and centralize the scanner stack over time. OpenVAS Scanner is best suited for security teams, administrators, and vulnerability management programs that need structured, feed-driven assessment capabilities.
