SecurityCenter CLI (written in Go)


Note: Please keep in mind this is to be considered alpha software. Use it in production environments at your own discretion.

Summary

This is a simple command line application to use various tasks capable in Tenable Network Security's Security Center (>= v5.0) and manipulate data within SecurityCenter. This should make automating various tasks in SecurityCenter (such as automated backups, syncing assets from a local database or file into SC, auditing user acces, etc) much easier.

Built-in is also an interactive menu useful for exporting and importing records (Assets, Users, Groups, Scan Results). This menu, and mostly this entire command line application, was built based on requirements needed or requested by West Virginia University's Information Security Services. This project is open-source licensed by the GNU General Public License (v3) found in the LICENSE file in this directory.

Supported are Linux, Mac OS, and Windows environments via Go's popular go build tool command.

Downloading and Installing

Third-Party Technologies

This was built using the following technologies:

  • SecurityCenter - A vulnerability management and analytics solution by Tenable Network Security.
  • Go ( > 1.5)

Documentation GoDoc

This project contains various packages which are able to be imported into your Go application which may speed things up is you're also working with SecurityCenter's API, collection authentication interactively, or creating interactive submenus. Go documentation can be viewed on GoDoc.
