Nessus - the unique security scanner, it scans for open ports, services version detects, scans for web vulnerabilities, passwords Brutus (to complete the work it is recommended to put the scanner: nmap -skaner ports, the hydra - brute force, nikto - cgi vulnerability scanner) + has a huge replenished the number of plug-ins improve the quality of the scanner. The scanner uses a client-server type of technology, ie without loaded and the client will not run the server is configured.
To install nessus need to download the installation script with nesusa site www.nessus.com file we need is the expansion we need sh.Posle download the necessary libraries (nessus as any other scanner can work in graphics and without it, for in the schedule need GTK 2.0 libraries)
"In order to install the necessary libraries in the Install Packages wizard, dial the GTK, find consonant with the name (to version SCC was 2.0), put a check on one component + master will tell you that it takes a few more packages, you must agree," If you do not have gtk disk , download:
ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gtk
We have nessus-installer-2.2.4.sh file (Version may differ) move in its directory, open a terminal and type:
sh
nessus-installer-2.2.4.sh
Starting a compilation and further setting:
1) Select the installation directory (for deflot is / usr / local)
2) Nesus asks for an activation code, do not enter it.
3) Wait until nesus established.
4) After compiling and installing the components you will see:
. Create a nessusd certificate using / usr / local / sbin / nessus-mkcert
-Create a certificate by no answer a few questions.
. Add a nessusd user use / usr / local / sbin / nessus-adduser
-Choose login + password. (Better deflotovy password pass)
. Start the Nessus daemon (nessusd) use / usr / local / sbin / nessusd -D
-for start nesusa server.
. Start the Nessus client (nessus) use / usr / local / bin / nessus
-start of nesusa
. To uninstall Nessus, use / usr / local / sbin / uninstall-nessus
It is unlikely you will be removed, but it is precisely for this :)
After installation, you may follow the error:
[29155] SSL_connect: error: 14094410: SSL routines: SSL3_READ_BYTES: sslv3 alert handshake failure
in order to fix it you need to download the SSL database (they are needed for the client connection to the server)
You can download them at:
www.openssl.org
After all the changes nesusa run the server:
nessusd -D
when you first start nesus displays an error loading the plug-in and plug-in selection window, select all.
Next, type:
nessus
All with a successful scenario we see nesusa settings window, enter the login and password that you entered when you set up after the nessus-adduser command.
All nesus installed and fully operational.
