Ingest .nessus files from Tenable's Nessus scanner into Elasticsearch.

❔ Why the new repo?

This project has taken on it's own form due to the major changes from the original work: iwikmai/Nessus-ES. A huge thanks to the original creator of Nessus-ES as it has given me the foundation to begin learning how to ingest data into the Elastic stack programmatically. Thank you!

The old project that I had forked and made my changes to is now archived/read-only and may eventually be deleted nicpenning/Nessus-ES.

This new project comes with some new changes such as bug fixes, pipeline/mapping updates, and the new ability to do a patch summary from previously ingested Nessus scan data that contain the same hosts.

⚡Power-Nessie🦕

A way to ingest Nessus Scan data into Elasticsearch using PowerShell. Tracking vulnerabilities can be scary and overwhelming but this tool is designed to wrangle up those vulnerabilities into a manageable way.

As always, feel free to post issues / questions in this project to make it even better. Enjoy!
