The Greenbone Security Manager
as a Hardware Solution

The Greenbone Security Manager (GSM) is an appliance for vulnerability scanning and management.

It is offered in various performance levels and basically supports an unlimited number of target systems. The actually achievable number depends on the scan pattern and scan targets.

For finding the right model for your purpose, we provide reference values for the number of target IP addresses below, assuming a common scenario with a scan every 24 hours.

Please choose the suitable device based on your network size and your scanning frequency. Our experts and partners would gladly help you with the sizing.

As a hardware appliance, the GSM is available in three different classes and as a sensor – starting with the GSM 150 for small and medium-sized enterprises to the midrange solutions with the GSM 400, GSM 450, GSM 600 and GSM 650 up to the enterprise solutions GSM 5400 and GSM 6500 for IT infrastructures of large companies.
