Transfer User Data
In Tenable Nessus Manager, you can transfer a user's data to a system administrator. When you transfer user data, you transfer ownership of all policies, scans, scan results, and plugin rules to a system administrator account. Transferring user data is useful if you need to remove a user account but do not want to lose their associated data in Tenable Nessus.
To transfer user data:
- Log in to Tenable Nessus with the system administrator account to which you want to transfer user data.
-
In the top navigation bar, click Settings.
The About page appears.
-
In the left navigation bar, under Accounts, click Users.
The Users page appears and shows the users table.
- In the users table, select the check box for each user whose data you want to transfer to your account.
-
In the upper-right corner, click Transfer Data.
A warning window appears.
Note: Once you transfer user data, you cannot undo the action.
-
To transfer the data, click Transfer.
Tenable Nessus transfers ownership of the selected user's policies, scans, scan results, and plugin rules to the administrator account.
