    Checkout duration

    The length of time, in minutes, that you want to keep credentials checked out in BeyondTrust. Configure the Checkout duration to exceed the typical duration of your Tenable Vulnerability Management scans. If a password from a previous scan is still checked out when a new scan begins, the new scan fails.

    When enabled, Tenable Vulnerability Management uses SSL through IIS for secure communications. You must configure SSL through IIS in BeyondTrust before enabling this option.

    no

    Verify SSL certificate

    When enabled, Tenable Vulnerability Management validates the SSL certificate. You must configure SSL through IIS in BeyondTrust before enabling this option.

  2. Once the scan completes, click the scan.

    Look for the following message - Microsoft Windows SMB Log In Possible: 10394. This validates that authentication was successful.
