Description
Hi,
I've noticed that there is a new section called "Tenable Nessus" on the pyTenable documentation:
https://pytenable.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api/nessus/index.html
My inquiry is to confirm if this is to help interface with the Nessus Scanners through the pyTenable library and if so, can there be a sample code on how to connect to the Nessus scanner using this library? Similar to the Tenable Security Center section, it talks how to use that class and connect to it:
https://pytenable.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api/sc/index.html
Thanks!
