Why API required? #3

Closed FalcoGer closed 3 years ago

Why is there an API requirement for this? Why does it have to talk to vulners.com? What data is sent and why is that required? I have no wish to disclose information about my machine or those of my scan targets to a third party. Why can this not be a local service?

Hi! Because this service is based in the server side data analysis. Local service is not possible due to large advisory database that is hosted at vulners.com
