Summary

Tines, a company in the security industry, emphasizes the importance of supporting open-source projects to ensure their sustainability and growth. One such project is Vuls, an open-source, agent-less vulnerability scanner for Linux/FreeBSD, developed by Kota Kanbe in Japan. Vuls leverages multiple vulnerability databases, including NVD, JVN, OVAL, and others, to enhance its scanning capabilities. The project's documentation highlights its utility for system administrators, and its code is available on GitHub, with updates accessible in English and Japanese on Twitter. Tines is committed to further supporting the open-source community and encourages interest in other tools they endorse.
