Yesterday, we started diving into Vulnerability Management... risk, CVEs, CVSS, risk matrices, and all the good stuff that comes with it.
Today, we're taking it a step further with a hands-on Nessus lab.
We'll be using the Nessus Vulnerability Scanner to scan:
- Our Metasploitable VM
- An Amazon EC2 instance
- An Azure Virtual Machine
But before we got started, one of my students asked a really good question:
“What’s the difference between Nessus installed on VirtualBox and the web version of Nessus?” 🤔
Now I want to throw this one to the cybersecurity experts in the house. 😂
Is there actually a difference? If so, what are the key differences in how they work, are deployed, and are used?
Drop your thoughts below. 👇
Let's see what the experts have to say. 🔥
