Nessus Network Auditing is the definitive guide to the Nessus open source vulnerability assessment tool. NNA features twelve contributors, but it doesn’t suffer the fate of other books with similar high author counts. I recommend all security professionals read this book. You may start as a Nessus user, but the book will help you become part of the community. NNA manages to present fairly original material in each chapter, without a lot of overlap. I credit the lead authors and editors for keeping the contributors on track.”]
