Nessus Vulnerability Security Scanning System


The Nessus Vulnerability Security Scanner has been provided to allow for ITA's and administrator's to scan and evaluate the security posture of their server and desktop systems.

In order to be able to use this tool, you must first request access to the system by filling out the form that is available at the following link below or downloading the Nessus Account Request Form (DOC) and sending it to the Information Security Office via email or campus mail to UH 1.114.

Once you have requested an account, the Information Security Office will evaluate the request and provide you with additional information that would assist you using the scanning utility.
