has anyone created any worklets or required software policy for installing Nessus on linux hosts? This would include configuring the agent with the necessary switches.
Page 1 / 1
I have sort of a process - it’s clunky and I probably stole most of it.
A required software policy that uploads the .deb file and starts the service (need to add the .deb to the policy)
"
dpkg -i ‘NessusAgent-8.2.4-ubuntu1110_amd64.deb’
service nessusagent start
"
and then a worklet that links the agent
eval code:
"#!/bin/bash
TARGET=cloud
MESSAGE=$(./nessuscli agent status | sed -n 2,2p | awk ‘{print $3}’)
#echo $MESSAGE
if “$TARGET” ]]; then
echo “match!”
exit 0
else
echo “no match!”
exit 1
fi
"
remediation code:
"
#!/bin/bash
cd /opt/nessus_agent/sbin
service nessusagent stop
./nessuscli agent link --key=thisisyourlongkey123456asdsffg --cloud
service nessusagent start
exit 0
"
This is helpful, thank you!
