In the past, I've used nessus for vulnerability scanning my lab, but as my service count has grown, the 16 IP limit is becoming a little unwieldy.

Is anyone able to recommend an alternative that fits at least most of the requirements I have?

  • Free (preferably in both senses of the word)

  • Doesn't use Docker, even if containerized, I'd prefer to avoid having my scanner share a host with another service... and I'm not incredibly well versed with Docker

  • Scans multiple systems (I tried Trivy, but as far as I can tell it only scans the system you install it on)

  • Has a webui for management of scans

Alternatively, if anyone is willing to lend some advice for the configuration of Wazuh... I deployed the service months ago with the expectation that it could be used for vulnerability scanning (the Dev was in a few reddit threads suggesting that it had the capability), but i haven't been able to configure it properly.

I appreciate any advice people are willing to offer!

I did it with Debian 12 bookworm. I'm working on getting the web interface accessible externally, as it's bound to local host only by default.

Theres 2 steps where you need to watch for noob traps if you plan on using Debian, one in particular being where the link to Rustup is contained within the command block, you need to navigate there in your web browser to grab the rustup install script before you run the commands. If you hit a wall, feel free to message me and I may be able to help!

I'm on bookworm now myself. Check this out https://forum.greenbone.net/t/external-access-to-gsa-web-interface-ip/1671/4 and thanks I'll let you know if I run into trouble!
