Useful for scanning your network for devices with known vulnerabilities.

Doesn't metasploit, OpenVAS and others already do a lot of this? Why not contribute modules there vs. write a new framework?

It seems to be using nuclei, metasploit etc. under the hood. I hope they recontribute the recipes though.

Yes everything added is open-sourced: Metasploit: https://github.com/Ostorlab/agent_metasploit Nuclei: https://github.com/Ostorlab/agent_nuclei OpenVas (not used though due to many issues): https://github.com/Ostorlab/agent_openvas Asteroid: https://github.com/Ostorlab/agent_asteroid
