Greenbone and its open-source core, OpenVAS, are pillars of the security community—offering deep, granular vulnerability scanning for technical experts. But technical data is only half the battle. Guardian360 takes those technical insights and elevates them into a strategic governance platform. While Greenbone requires significant manual configuration and "translation" for auditors, Guardian360 provides automated compliance mapping, intuitive dashboards for non-technical stakeholders, and proactive "Hacker Alerts" (honeypots). Move beyond raw data and start managing your business risk.
Greenbone/OpenVAS is ideal for highly technical security teams or labs who need a free (Community) or on-premise (Enterprise) engine to run specific, deep-dive network scans. If you have the time to manage the infrastructure and manually map the results to your business needs, it is a powerful technical asset.
When Guardian360 is the Right Choice
Guardian360 is the choice for organizations that need a "turnkey" security solution. We automate the "Lighthouse" effect—shining a light on vulnerabilities and immediately showing you how they impact your compliance with NIS2 or ISO 27001. We remove the management overhead, letting you focus on fixing risks, not managing tools.
Proactive vs. Reactive
Greenbone tells you what is vulnerable (Reactive). Guardian360 tells you when someone is already inside. By deploying our unique "Hacker Alerts" alongside our scans, we detect unauthorized lateral movement in real-time—a feature set simply not available in traditional vulnerability scanners.
From Technical Scans to Total Governance
Stop wrestling with manual configurations and start proving your compliance.
