Even if Nessus was certified, MC/Visa have a Qualified Security Assessors
list that I believe you must choose from
as of 12/20/04 it was at
https://sdp.mastercardintl.com/vendors/vendor_list.shtml - you could use
Nessus for preliminary
scans though and I think that some of the "Qualified Assessors" may use
Nessus as I have seen things that suggest it
in logs.


Unless you can get the Nessus Open Source Vulnerability Scanner project team
to certify Nessus with the Visa & MasterCard PCI program, I would not advise
using this tool for client engagements.

Can you be more specific?  Is this PCI 1.0?  And are you talking about 
a specific section like section 1 or other sections?

Has anyone had any luck mapping nessus results to the Payment Card 
Industry
(PCI) Data Security standard?
