Tenable Nessus Cloud – auditing cloud infrastructure

in #tenable • 8 years ago

 Nessus Cloud is a simplified and powerful tool for Information  Security Professionals and has many scanning options as listed below:  

  • Windows Malware Scan
  • Web Application Tests
  • SCAP and OVAL Auditing
  • Basic Network Scan
  • Mobile Device Scan

There are a few more but in this post I wanted to talk about the ‘Audit Cloud Infrastructure‘  option which is recently added and tests different cloud platforms for  compliance and security mis-configurations. The cloud platforms which  can be tested currently for any compliance issues are:  

  • Amazon AWS
  • Microsoft Azure
  • Rackspace
  • Salesforce

Its very difficult to test cloud services for security  vulnerabilities because of the restrictions and privileges, but that  does not mean that everything is safe and secure. Its always good to  keep a check on everything in terms of compliance, security and best  practices.
