Plugins
The “Plugins” tab gives the user the option to customize which plugins are used during the policy’s Nessus scan.
Clicking the circle next to a plugin family allows you to enable or disable the entire family. The circles next to the name
under Families will show green when some or all of the plugins for that family are enabled. The green will show as full if
all the plugins are selected, or ¼, ½, or ¾ full when some plugins in the family are selected, where the circle’s green fill
approximates the number of plugins selected.
Selecting a specific plugin will display the plugin output that will be displayed as seen in a report. The synopsis and
description will provide more details of the vulnerability being examined. Scrolling down in the “Plugin Description” pane
will also show solution information, additional references if available, and the CVSSv2 score that provides a basic risk
rating.
