Seccubus has reached Beta phase

As of today, the 8th of January 2012, we released Seccubus 2.0.beta1, the first beta version of Seccubus.

With this version Seccubus v1 is now officially no longer under active development. This means that no new features will be added and bug may, or may not, be fixed, depending on the urgency of the bug and the effort involved in fixing it.

The key differences between verison 1 and version 2 are:

• Findings are stored in a relational database in stead of on the filesystem.
• Seccubus uses XML RPC to communicatie with Nessus, this also means that it can communicate with both the professional feed and home feed version.
• There is no need for the webserver to read files from the Seccubus user anymore.
• Scans are organized into workspaces, allowing scans of the same kind, or same target to be group into a workspace and viewed together.

Here are the release notes:

=======================

New features / Issues resolved

------------------------------

With this release Seccubus goes into BETA phase. It also marks the end of

active development for Seccubus V1 (last current version is 1.5.5)

Seccubus V1 is still maintained at a minimum level, meaning that if bugs are

found and they are not too complex to fix, they will be fixed, but no new

features will be added to the V1 branch of the product.
