Tenable, a leader in exposure management, has unveiled the latest advancement in its Tenable Vulnerability Priority Rating (VPR), integrating generative AI, enriched threat intelligence, and context-aware scoring to further refine how organizations identify and address their most critical risks.

Traditional Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) ratings broadly categorize around 60% of vulnerabilities as high or critical, making prioritization difficult. Since its debut in 2019, Tenable VPR has dramatically streamlined this process, reducing that figure to just 3% by focusing on vulnerabilities posing real threats. With its new AI-powered upgrades, Tenable VPR now delivers twice the precision, highlighting only the top 1.6% of vulnerabilities that carry significant business risk. These improvements empower security teams to act faster, allocate resources efficiently, and align their remediation strategies with organizational priorities.

“Our biggest challenge was the overwhelming noise – thousands of vulnerabilities with no clear guidance on which were true threats,” said Jorge Orchilles, Senior Director of Readiness and Proactive Security at Verizon. “Tenable VPR changed that by revealing exactly what attackers are targeting right now. It helps us focus on the vulnerabilities that really matter, allowing us to deploy critical patches much faster.”

Eric Doerr, Chief Product Officer at Tenable, added, “We’re taking Tenable VPR to new heights with these AI-powered enhancements. The platform now delivers unparalleled precision, threat intelligence, and contextual insights, enabling organizations to clearly understand why a vulnerability is critical, where they’re exposed, and how to remediate their highest priority risks.”

Key upgrades to Tenable VPR include:

AI-Powered Insights and Explainability: New VPR insights offer instant clarity into why specific exposures matter, how they’ve been weaponized, and provide clear, actionable remediation guidance. AI-generated threat summaries and mitigation insights ensure security teams understand the real-world risks and next steps rapidly.

Industry and Regional Contextual Prioritization: Enhanced filtering, querying, and metadata capabilities allow organizations to prioritize vulnerabilities based on threats specific to their industry and region, ensuring they address exposures most relevant to their business environment first.

With these cutting-edge improvements, Tenable continues to empower organizations to cut through vulnerability noise, focus on real threats, and drive impactful security outcomes with greater speed and confidence.
