Terrascan Scan History

Important! Tenable is removing all Terrascan functionality from Tenable Nessus on September 30, 2025. For more information, see the Terrascan End of Support FAQ.

The Terrascan user interface allows you to manage the Terrascan scan history in a few ways. You can use a scan's scan history page to launch the scan, edit the scan configuration, download scan results, download the command output of a scan, view the configuration used for a completed scan, and delete the scan's history and results.

Before you begin:

• Install Terrascan on your Nessus instance.

To navigate to the Terrascan scan history page:

1. Under Resources in the left-side navigation pane, click Terrascan.

   The Scans page appears.

2. Click the row of the scan you want to view.

   The scan details page appears, and the Violations tab opens by default.

3. Click the History tab.

   The History page appears.

4. Do one of the following:

   • Launch the scan.

   • Edit the scan configuration.

   • Download the scan results of a completed scan.

   • Export the scan's summary of violations.

   • Download a scan's command output.

     1. Roll over the scan whose command output you want to download.

     2. In the scan row, click the button.

        The command output downloads as a .txt file.

   • View the configuration used for a completed scan.

     1. Roll over the scan whose command output you want to download.

     2. In the scan row, click the button.

        The Config Details window appears and shows the scan's configuration.

   • Delete a scan's history and results.

     1. Roll over the scan whose history and results you want to delete.

     2. In the scan row, click the button.

        The Delete Result window appears.

     3. Click Delete.

        Nessus removes the scan history and related results from the scan history page.
