Exposure Management company Tenable announced the release of Vulnerability Intelligence and Exposure Response. The two powerful are available in Tenable Vulnerability Management, Tenable One, and Tenable Cloud Security. Security teams can harness these features to analyze vulnerability data from internal and external sources. As a result, organizations can plug the risky gaps that pose threats.
Cybersecurity teams are overwhelmed by a deluge of fragmented vulnerability data. Despite this, Tenable Research reveals a stark reality: only 3% of vulnerabilities pose a significant threat. Tenable has introduced new capabilities to address this challenge. The two new solutions pinpoint critical vulnerabilities, providing actionable insights for effective risk mitigation. Security managers can now focus on the vulnerabilities that truly matter, while organizations can optimize their security posture and allocate resources efficiently without wasting time or resources.
Tenable’s Gavin Millard, VP of product management for Vulnerability Management said, “Without threat context and research insights, every vulnerability is a priority, creating a high-stress, low-efficiency whack-a-mole scenario for security teams. Tenable is unleashing more than two decades of carefully curated exposure data to enable security teams to focus on the risk that matters most to their organization and communicate succinctly to stakeholders. The enriched intelligence and contextualization take prioritization and response to a new level, providing security teams with the critical data needed to identify and reduce risk.”
Tenable Transforms Vulnerability Management with Data-Driven Insights
Tenable has amassed an unparalleled dataset of over 50 trillion data points across 240K+ vulnerabilities. This rich repository fuels our Vulnerability Intelligence platform, providing security teams with actionable insights to prioritize and remediate critical exposures.
Key features of Vulnerability Intelligence include:
- Security Threat Landscape Overview – Vulnerability Intelligence has listed seven curated exposure risk categories. This categorization identifies surface key exposures, highlighting CVEs under CISA known exploits, active exploitation, ransomware campaigns, emerging threats in the news, reports, and more.
- Natural Language and Advanced Search – Security teams use an easy-to-use search function to search for specific vulnerabilities by CVE number or common name. Then, the teams can review distilled knowledge about vulnerability and surface-impacted assets. Security teams can identify high-impact vulnerabilities based on VPR key drivers, common vulnerability scoring system (CVSS) metrics, and Tenable Research metadata.
- Campaign-Based Initiatives: Security teams can improve their outcomes. These are focused on targeted campaigns and business segments using an end-to-end workflow. The new capabilities streamline the prioritization and mitigation of critical vulnerabilities. Overall, this is designed to promote better resource management and improved security outcomes.
- Progress Tracking and Advanced Reporting: Security teams leverage advanced reporting capabilities for clear accountability and visibility into remediation efforts. Detailed reports on vulnerability trends, empowering data-driven decision-making and proactive security improvements. These include identifying bottlenecks, assisting resource allocation, and facilitating data-driven decisions.
AI-Powered Exposure Management: A New Era of Cybersecurity
AI-powered exposure management platforms offer a revolutionary solution. At the Black Hat 2024 conference in the US, we will hear cybersecurity experts and IT analysts speak a lot about AI and security strategies. While the modern attack surface is vast and ever-evolving, AI-powered vulnerability intelligence and response management solutions can solve complex challenges for CISOs. We await business leaders to knock off the traditional security tools in favor of advanced AI tools to mitigate the complexity and velocity of threats. In 2024’s Black Hat conference, we will learn how CISOs and security managers can effectively protect against breaches. Organizations must adopt a holistic approach across the entire IT ecosystem, from infrastructure to Cloud environments. Companies such as Tenable provide unified security visibility, insights, remediation, and response management to combat vulnerabilities for the entire surface attack.
