For a system administrator, having to perform security vulnerability analysis and software update on a daily basis can be a burden. To avoid downtime in a production environment, it is common for a system administrator to choose not to use the automatic update option provided by the package manager and to perform update manually. This leads to the following problems.

• System administrator will have to constantly watch out for any new vulnerabilities in NVD(National Vulnerability Database) or similar databases.
• It might be impossible for the system administrator to monitor all the software if there are a large number of software installed in server.
• It is expensive to perform analysis to determine the servers affected by new vulnerabilities. The possibility of overlooking a server or two during analysis is there.

Vuls is a tool created to solve the problems listed above. It has the following characteristics.

• Informs users of the vulnerabilities that are related to the system.
• Informs users of the servers that are affected.
• Vulnerability detection is done automatically to prevent any oversight.
