Nessus es un programa de escaneo de vulnerabilidades en diversos sistemas operativos. Consiste en nessusd, el daemon Nessus, que realiza el escaneo en el sistema objetivo, y nessus, el cliente (basado en consola o gráfico) que muestra el avance y reporte de los escaneos. Desde consola nessus puede ser programado para hacer escaneos programados con cron.
