Article summary

Tenable Nessus CSV File Adapter imports device information from vulnerability scan data.

The adapter parameters are as same as the CSV Legacy Remote File Configuration, except for the File contains users information and the File contains installed software information parameters. These fields are not part of the Tenable Nessus CSV File adapter configuration, as the adapter provides devices data only, without any information on the installed software.

When uploading the CSV file, you will need to ensure that the field with IP address information is labeled "Host".
