Note: For each agent synchronization job result for a child node, Tenable Security Center imports a metadata record containing no vulnerability data. This metadata record appears as a second result on the Scan Results page. To prevent Tenable Security Center from importing the metadata file, configure and launch agent scans from Tenable Security Center, as described in Agent Scans.

To view a list of scan results:

  1. Log in to Tenable Security Center Director via the user interface.

  2. Click Scan Results (administrator users) or Scans > Scan Results (organizational users).
