Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Tenable to scan our public facing web and VPN infrastructure and e-commerce applications for software and configuration security vulnerabilities. While this is required for PCI compliance, we also have business partners and our Cyber Insurance provider who expect us to maintain a vulnerability management program.

Pros

  • The configuration options for vulnerability scans are very flexible, there are plenty of settings to get scans configured for just about any need.
  • There are also good options for reporting, from PCI compliance reports to executive summaries.
  • An internal network scanner can be linked to and controlled from the cloud portal for a consolidated view of scans and results.

Cons

  • Over the years, Tenable has changed their product names and features a bit too much and every year when I go to renew my licenses, I need to review the different packages and options to ensure I'm actually getting what I think I'm getting.
  • Depending on how you configure scans, sometimes there are an overwhelming number of options and some types of scans have too few... it can be confusing!

Likelihood to Recommend

I've been using this product since it began as an open source product, I really like it and for the money, I think it's probably the best choice for most companies who need a product like this. Over the years I've seen the interface change quite a bit and sometimes I think it's a bit unclear how to do certain things and the different packages can be confusing, these are the only reasons I'm giving it a 9 instead of a 10.
