How to install and use Nessus on Kali Linux
First download nessus .deb package:
http://www.tenable.com/products/nessus/select-your-operating-system
From the console:
dpkg -i nessus....
From the console:
cd /opt/nessus/bin
./nessus-fetch --register "activationcode"
From the console:
service nessusd start
In the browser:
Enable auto update plugins:
