Remember to alert before a vulnerability scan

Always run safe scans

Avoid:

  • Printer scanning

  • DoS scanning

  • Limit bandwidth on delicate networks

Monitor network usage with vnstat:

sudo vnstat -l -i eth0

Useful tool to convert OpenVAS xml reports into other formats like Excel:

Nessus
