Create actionable data from your vulnerability scans

VulnWhisperer is a vulnerability report aggregator for nessus (more scanners to come). VulnWhisperer will pull all the reports and create a file with a unique filename which is then fed into logstash. Logstash extracts data from the filename and tags all of the information inside the report (see logstash_vulnwhisp.conf file). Data is then shipped to elasticsearch to be indexed.
