gsad - Greenbone Security Assistant for the Open Vulnerability
Assessment System (OpenVAS)
Together, OpenVAS Scanner (openvassd(8)) and OpenVAS Manager
(openvasmd(8)) provide the core functionality of the Open Vulnerability
Assessment System (OpenVAS), with OpenVAS Scanner handling the actual scan
process and OpenVAS Manager adding various management functionalities to
handle and organise scan results.
The Greenbone Security Assistant Daemon (gsad) is a web
application that connects to the OpenVAS Manager to provide for a
full-featured user interface for vulnerability management.
