What is Nessus?

Nessus is a popular vulnerability scanner widely used by security professionals and organizations to identify security vulnerabilities in their networks and systems. It is a powerful tool that can help you assess the security of your network and identify potential vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit.

How does Nessus work?

Nessus uses various techniques to identify network, system, and application vulnerabilities. Here’s a breakdown of how it works:

The first step in a Nessus scan is network discovery. Nessus identifies all the hosts on the network and determines their operating systems, open ports, and services running on them. This information is used to determine what types of vulnerabilities might be present on the network.

Once Nessus has identified the hosts on the network, it begins looking for vulnerabilities in the target systems. Nessus uses a variety of techniques to detect vulnerabilities, including:

Port scanning: Nessus probes open ports to determine if any services are running that may have known vulnerabilities.

Banner grabbing: Nessus collects information about services running on open ports, including the version number and vendor name, to determine if there are any known vulnerabilities associated with those services.

Active scanning: Nessus sends specific packets to the target system to see how it responds, looking for vulnerabilities in the way it handles those packets.

Once Nessus has identified potential vulnerabilities on the target system, it performs a vulnerability assessment to determine the severity of each vulnerability. Nessus assigns a severity rating to each vulnerability based on its potential impact on the system, and provides detailed information about each vulnerability, including its description, potential impact, and recommendations for remediation.

Finally, Nessus generates a report that summarizes the vulnerabilities found on the target system, along with their severity ratings, and recommendations for remediation. The report can be customized to include a variety of information, including the scope of the scan, the systems scanned, the vulnerabilities found, and the actions taken to remediate the vulnerabilities.

Once Nessus has identified the hosts on the network, it begins looking for vulnerabilities in the target systems. Nessus uses a variety of techniques to detect vulnerabilities, including:

Port scanning: Nessus probes open ports to determine if any services are running that may have known vulnerabilities.

Nessus Scanner Tutorial: Performing a Vulnerability Scan

Now that we’ve discussed the basics of Nessus and how to download and install it, it’s time for the fun part! Let’s perform a vulnerability scan, shall we?

1. Internet

Launch any web browser (in the video tutorial, I use Microsoft Edge.) In the address bar of the browser, type https://localhost:8834/ and press enter.

The Your Connection Isn’t Private page will appear. Click on Advanced and click Continue to localhost (unsafe.)

2. Log in

The Nessus login page appears. Type in the username and address you chose during the initial installation/setup phase. Click Sign in.

3. Nessus

The Nessus dashboard appears; a pop-up box will typically appear upon launch. Close the pop-up box. We don’t need to do anything with that right now.

4. The dashboard

The Policies window appears. Click on Create a new policy.

5. New policy

The Policy Templates window appears. This is where you’ll find all different kinds of ready-made scanning templates for you to use. There are templates for a basic scan, advanced scan, malware scan, web application scan, and many more.

Click on Advanced scan.

6. Configuring scan settings

The New Policy/Advanced Scan section appears.

In the settings section, next to the Basic settings tab, we will give our new scan template a name and a description.

The next settings tab under Basic is Discovery. Turn off the Ping the remote host option from the right pane.

Under Discovery, click on Port Scanning.

Click the Verify open TCP ports found by local port enumerators checkbox and leave all the others in their default settings.

7. Configuring more scan settings

Click on the Advanced settings tab. Underneath Performance Options, set the values of Max number of concurrent TCP sessions per host and Max number of concurrent TCP sessions per scan to Unlimited.

Now, let’s click the Credentials settings tab. Select Windows from the options available (assuming you’re working with Windows.)

The Credentials page of a scan or policy allows you to configure which authentication credentials the Nessus scanner should use during the scan. This allows it to perform various checks to improve the accuracy of its results.

8. Save the scan template

Click Save to save your new scan template. A Policy saved successfully notification pop-up should appear.

9. Access the new scan template

From the menu bar, click Scans to open the My Scans window.

Click Create a new scan.

Click the User Defined tab.

Locate your newly created scan template.

10. Name and description of the scan

Under General settings, enter a name for your scan. You can also describe the scan.

In the Targets field, enter the IP address of the target you’re scanning.

11. Last configuration

Under the Schedule settings, double-check to ensure the Enabled switch is turned OFF.

12. Launch the scan

Locate the Save button and move your mouse to select the drop-down icon next to it.

Click Launch.

Summary and Key Takeaways

And there you have it! That’s how to run a vulnerability scan using Nessus. The scan can take approximately 15 to 20 minutes; click on the scan to open the results. After some time has gone by, you can check on the scan to see if it’s done. Once it’s finished, click on the name of the scan to view the results.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Informal Negotiations

To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Terms of Use (each “Dispute” and collectively, the “Disputes”) brought by either you or us (individually, a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.

Binding Arbitration

If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved through binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules”), both of which are available at the AAA website: www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in Chittenden, Vermont. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in Chittenden, Vermont, and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) is excluded from these Terms of Use.

In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any way to the Site be commenced more than one (1) years after the cause of action arose. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable, and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

Restrictions

The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.

Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration

The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
