How to automate vulnerability scanning using OpenVAS

0 votes

I want to automate vulnerability scanning using OpenVAS to regularly check for security flaws in my infrastructure. While I have installed OpenVAS and can run scans manually via the GUI, I need guidance on:

  • Automating the process using command-line tools or Python APIs.
  • Scheduling scans and generating structured reports.
  • Handling authentication-based scans for web applications or internal services.
    Any best practices or example scripts to integrate OpenVAS scanning into a CI/CD pipeline would be helpful.
