Review on OpenVAS by Carl Lipschultz

The UI was easy to navigate, it has many features that are not available in other free products like Nessus or open source solutions such as nmap/nse etc., but also provides very good support for custom plugins which can be developed using python scripting language (pylons). There could have been more documentation about how things work behind scenes so I had some issues when trying out new functions from time-to-time due lack understanding what's happening under hoods at times! But overall this product does exactly its job - Vulnerability Scanning with high accuracy & fast speed even against multiple targets running simultaneously without any performance degradation! It supports both passive scans through SNMP / ping tests along side active network attacks via NMap port scan module called "NSE" script engine plugin included within Opensvas itself by default allowing you run your own scripts.
