• SIEM for your own internal network

  You can look at a table with the differences here: Https://cybersecurity.att.com/products/ossim. Source: 11 months ago

• What do you guys use for networking monitoring

  Another is AT&T's AlienVault OSSIM software. If you can put it on its own hardware, it runs FAR better than it did on a VM in my experience. I've seen this in action and it's a huge monster to get into - I barely scratched the surface and thought I was hitting walls, so it might not be the most intuitive - but I'd recommend watching a few youtube videos to show off what it can do I suppose. Mine set off my... Source: about 1 year ago

• Does the BGW320 perform automated SSH vulnerability tests on clients?

  I enabled my ATT security this morning and had a download going that used about 70% of my capacity. I also have an Ubiquiti setup, I don’t believe ATT’s security is as harsh on cpu load that Ubiquiti is. Several years ago, ATT bought Alien Vault which primarily monitors log files and conducts routine vulnerability scans. Since it was purchased, they renamed us as ATT Cybersecurity....

• What should I be doing as the sole sysadmin for a company to keep up with security?

  Personally, I was lucky enough to get a license to Nessus for my own scanning, however you can use OpenVAS for some free to scan. Scanners aren't 100% correct no matter where you go but it'll give you some things to look at. OpenVAS. Source: about 2 years ago

• Wanting to protect my own homelab

  Https://openvas.org/ OpenVAS is free and fairly capable. It might struggle cpu on a pi... Might need quite a bit of ram, but I'm hoping you've got some beefier kit in your stack. Source: about 2 years ago

• Free nessus equivalent?

  Maybe OpenVAS would fill the bill. It’s been on my list of things to check out. Source: over 2 years ago

• Internal Vulnerability Scanning

  OpenVAS - https://openvas.org Try it first, its free, just download a prebuilt VM and you're off and running. I found it valuable for my clients. Source: almost 3 years ago
