-OpenVAS stands for Open Vulnerability Assessment System and is a network
-security scanner with associated tools like a graphical user front-end. The
-core component is a server with a set of network vulnerability tests (NVTs)
-to detect security problems in remote systems and applications.
-
-OpenVAS products are Free Software under GNU GPL and a fork of Nessus.
-
-This package provides the OpenVAS server plugins. To build OpenVAS server,
-you have to compile and install the packages in the the following sequence:
- 1. openvas-libraries
- 2. openvas-libnasl
- 3. openvas-server
- 4. openvas-plugins
-
-You need rsync to use the openvas-nvt-sync update command.
-This is the last release of openvas-plugins, next openvas-server and client
-releases will no longer use this pacakge: the plugins will be downloaded
-manually with the openvas-nvt-sync command.
