Tenable Nessus

We utilize Nessus as a primary vulnerability assessment tool to identify security weaknesses across organizations. It enables us to perform scheduled scans to comply with requirements and also helps us assess our organization's security posture. We use Nessus to scan our External and internal networks, servers, endpoints, web applications, and configurations to identify risk and compliance gaps.

• Reduced risk exposure.

We use Tenable Nessus to scan for vulnerabilities and insecure misconfigurations to improve our security posture. Nessus identifies missing patches and firmware updates and provides basic information on the CVEs to help with remediation. I sleep better at night knowing we are proactively preventing breaches and unauthorized access. It is also valuable tool to achieve compliance and provides evidence for our auditors.

• Tenable Nessus has saved our security team countless hours of manually identifying security weaknesses in our infrastructure.
• I would like to think that the remediations we have performed based on Tenable Nessus reports has prevented at least one breach of our network. If that is the case, the ROI is basically incalculable but could easily be in the tens of millions of dollars.
• Tenable Nessus has helped our organization formalize many security practices and processes that keep our business running smoothly.
