O debsecan efectua uma avaliação de segurança ao sistema e relata vulnerabilidades conhecidas associadas aos pacotes instalado no sistema, notificando o administrador (root) dos resultados.

root@server:~# apt install debsecan

Para relatórios mais rigorosos, deverá ser indicada a versão Debian do nosso sistema no ficheiro /etc/default/debsecan:

#[...]

# For better reporting, specify the correct suite here, using the code
# name (that is, "sid" instead of "unstable").
#SUITE=GENERIC
SUITE=buster

#[...]

O debsecan pode ser configurado para ser executado diariamente através de uma tarefa agendada (cron), sendo os resultados enviados por email ao administrador do sistema (root):

root@server:~# debsecan-create-cron

A tarefa agendada durante a configuração irá enviar uma email ao administrador com o resultado da análise de segurança:

Subject: Debian security status of server
To: root@home.lan
Date: Sun,  9 Jul 2017 02:34:04 +0100 (WEST)

Security report based on general data

If you specify a proper suite, this report will include information
regarding available security updates and obsolete packages.  To set
the correct suite, run "dpkg-reconfigure debsecan" as root.
