Can the Risk Insights module replace a vulnerability scanner such as OpenVAS?

Solution

Lansweeper's Risk Insights module is designed to enhance asset visibility by identifying potential risks within your IT environment. However, it is not a full replacement for a dedicated vulnerability scanner like OpenVAS.

Risk Insights provides valuable security-related information but does not perform active vulnerability scanning in the same way that specialized security tools do. Instead, it complements Lansweeper’s asset discovery capabilities by enriching your data with risk-related insights.
