What is OpenVAS?
OpenVAS is an Open Source Vulnerability Scanner and the official project homepage can be found at www.openvas.org.
With this tutorial I would like to explain how to install the newest release 3.0 (at the moment)
This tutorial is based on openvas-libraries 3.0.5, openvas-scanner 3.0.2 and openvas-client 3.0.0
At the moment OpenVAS packages included into Ubuntu repositories is not update, and we will compile from sources.
