Greenbone Security Desktop
The Greenbone Security Desktop (GSD) integrates vulnerability management into the desktop user interface. Parallel access via web browser is still possible, but not mandatory.
Compared to the web interface GSD offers a faster processing as well as a seamless integration into the desktop environment. Nonetheless all data remain on the Greenbone Security Manager and are only downloaded on request. Therefore concurrent access from different GSD installations provides consistent data status.
GSD runs on various Windows, MacOSX and GNU/Linux operating systems. For Windows systems it can be installed via the Greenbone Desktop Suite. For installation packages for other systems please contact our support team.
For using the Greenbone Security Desktop it is necessary to enable OMP support of Greenbone Security Manager. How to enable OMP is described in the manual "GSM Command Line Interface: Administrator Guide" and also in our learning center under OMP Remote Controlled.
