NessusClient 3.0.1 released

Friday 28 December 2007

NessusClient 3 is the official GUI for the standalone version of Nessus. Its key features are :

Real-time results. No need to wait until the end of a scan to start analyzing the findings of Nessus

Document based. Save your policies, scan results and scan targets into a single file

New XML based report format. The new ’.nessus’ file format saves into a single XML file your scan policies, scan targets and scan results

Multiple connections. NessusClient can connect to several scanners at the same time

Consistent interface. The same interface exists on Mac OS X, Windows and Linux

This update contains the following fixes :

Exporting a policy to the old .nessusrc format now generates a file which properly configures the port scanners and plugin preferences

On Windows, importing scan policies from NessusGUI.exe properly enables the plugins
