Nessus is primarily used for scanning and assessing networks to find vulnerabilities that could be exploited. It does not directly provide intrusion detection capabilities, network traffic analysis, or firewall configuration, which makes the correct answer stand out as it is the key functionality of Nessus in the penetration testing process.
