Let's start the Nexpose installation over our Virtual Machine. From here Download The Nexpose VM
Firstly, we'll add Nexpose in our Virtual Workstation and power it ON. As soon as it boots up, we'll see our default login credentials - Username (nexpose) and Password (nexpose)
Afterward, use the ifconfig command in your Nexpose to check your machine's IP address, so that we can log into the Nexpose's web interface
Now armed with the IP, we need to set the HTTPS (i.e Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer) and port 3780 is the Nexpose's default port.
URL: https://<Nexpose _IP>:3780
Though we'll be greeted with a warning about a Security Certificate, therefore, to use Nexpose, we'll have to get through this warning. Click on Advanced, followed by Accept the Risk and Continue. You will then be redirected to a login page, given the default
username (nxadmin) and password (nxpassword)
Further, you'll be asked for an activation Key, as shown in the image, to provide the license key that you've received at your email address.
As soon as you've logged in and completed all the essential activations, the Nexpose Security Web Console page will activate.
