Connector

Greenbone

API credential, entered client by client.

Self-hosted open-source vulnerability scanner (Greenbone Community Edition / OpenVAS). Vigicap reads the list of scan tasks (count, status, date of the last report) to evaluate the ReCyF objective « Maîtrise des systèmes d'information ». The presence of recent, completed scans is a signal, but does not guarantee that the vulnerabilities detected were then remediated.

01

What to create in the tool

The access is created in Greenbone, not in Vigicap. Vigicap never asks for an administrator's password: it expects an API credential that you create, that you can see, and that you can revoke without us.

Where to generate it

Créez un utilisateur dédié dans Greenbone (Administration > Users > New User), idéalement avec le rôle « Info » ou « Guest » plutôt que « Admin ». Important : l'instance doit présenter un certificat TLS valide et reconnu — le certificat auto-signé généré par défaut par les Greenbone Community Containers sera refusé par Vigicap (aucune option pour désactiver la vérification TLS, par sécurité).

Minimum role

GMP n'a pas de rôle applicatif « lecture seule » séparé pour un compte web standard — créez un utilisateur dédié avec le rôle intégré « Guest » ou « Info » (Administration > Users) plutôt que de réutiliser le compte admin.

Taken from the vendor's own role model, and checked before publication.

02

What to enter in Vigicap

The exact fields of the connection form, in the order they appear. Values marked “secret” never travel back to the browser: they are encrypted at rest and deleted on disconnection.

The form starts with the instance address, entered separately from the fields below. The public catalogue does not yet publish whether this connector needs one, or what it looks like — so this list is exact about everything else, and silent about that first field.

  • Nom d'utilisateursecret

    Compte Greenbone dédié (Administration > Users).

  • Mot de passesecret

    Mot de passe associé à ce compte.

03

Per-client routing

The connection is made client by client: one credential per client, entered on that client's record. Nothing is shared between two clients, and disconnecting one leaves the other untouched.

04

What it does, and what it does not do

ReCyF objectives it pre-fills

A reading feeds one objective of the ANSSI ReCyF framework. It PROPOSES it: the level only counts once a consultant has confirmed it.

Read-only

The reads are read-only: Vigicap writes nothing into the tool while reading it.

What is read, what is kept, for how long and with which rights: the same register, connector by connector, in the data inventory.

Verification

This connector has been run end to end against a real instance of the tool, not merely tested against a mock.
