Package: nessusd (2.2.3-3)

Remote network security auditor, the server

The Nessus Security Scanner is a security auditing tool. It makes possible to test security modules in an attempt to find vulnerable spots that should be fixed.

It is made up of two parts: a server, and a client. The server/daemon, nessusd, is in charge of the attacks, whereas the client, nessus, provides the user a nice X11/GTK+ interface.

This package contains the nessusd server, which must be run as root.
