About NessusWC - Credits and Copyrights
=======================================
NessusWC development goals were pure simplicity. No Java, PHP, databases
or other enabling technology must be maintained. No cookies either. Just
plain CGI technology written in 'C'.
The benefit is a centrally located scan client that keeps all results in
one place. The design is kept so simple, even a non-IT person could start
a scan. The ultimate goal is the design of a ["Scan-Me"] button that
takes the users IP and gives it a pre-defined scan as a self-service app.
NessusWC has been developed for use with a Apache webserver under Linux,
connecting to a Nessus v2.x/v3.x server and is using libraries such as:
GNU libc
OpenSSL
CGIC
To my best knowledge, I need to mention copyrights of the GPL, the OpenSSL
team (Mark J. Cox, Ralf S. Engelschall, Ben Laurie, Dr. Stephen Henson),
Thomas Boutell for the cgic library, and Renaud Deraison with the Tenable
Network Security team for the Nessus server software and protocol information.
This software is released under the terms of the GPL license, provided as is,
with no warranties whatsoever. You are free to use it, change it and do
whatever you want provided you keep the original author information intact.
