A. Yes. If you are a MSSP and are using Nessus to perform scanning services, you must subscribe to the ProfessionalFeed to use it commercially with the latest updates. A HomeFeed cannot be used for MSSP services commercially.

A. Yes. If you are a MSSP and are using Nessus to perform remote scanning services, you must subscribe to the ProfessionalFeed to use it commercially with the latest updates. As a reminder, if you are a MSSP, you cannot install Nessus 4.4 on an appliance, either virtual or physical, and provide to your customers as Nessus 4.4 can only be used by you to provide remote scanning services of external IP addresses. In addition, you cannot sell, resell, loan or otherwise provide access to third parties the new Nessus XMLRPC interface, Nessus client interface or Nessus communication interface shipped by Tenable and provided to You.
