How do I update the OpenVAS vulnerability feeds?
Panoptic Scans automatically updates the OpenVAS vulnerability scanner and the vulnerability feeds before every scan, so you don't have to.
What types of report outputs does OpenVAS produce?
OpenVAS produces PDF, XML and CSV reports that can be downloaded from the Panoptic Scans dashboard.
Can I scan internal networks with OpenVAS?
Yes. Internal network scanning is available on the Pro plan. Panoptic Scans provides a lightweight script you run on your own VM inside your network. Scan results are automatically uploaded to the Panoptic platform for centralized vulnerability management and reporting alongside your external scan data.
