Tenable Cloud Security Reviews & Product Details

Tenable Cloud Security is an actionable cloud security platform that exposes and closes priority security gaps caused by misconfigurations, risky entitlements and vulnerabilities. Organizations use its intuitive UI to unify siloed tools to secure the full cloud stack, achieving end-to-end visibility, prioritization and remediation across infrastructure, workloads, identities, data and AI services. Users can access the extensive knowledgebase of Tenable Research, reducing the risk of breaches with advanced prioritization that understands resource, identity and risk relationships. Tenable uses this context to pinpoint toxic combinations of risk most likely to be exploited. Take action, even if you only have 5 minutes, with guided remediations and code snippets that significantly reduce MTTR. With one click, report on compliance with industry benchmarks and regulatory requirements, e.g. SOC 2, GDPR & HIPAA. TCS is part of Tenable’s AI-powered exposure management platform, Tenable One.

"I was blind, but with Ermetic today I see and fix IAM and Cloud miss-configuration"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Tenable Cloud Security?

First of all, the entire Ermetic team is excellent!

2nd the product and the day-2-day experience are simply superb!

The way we can set the least privilege across the 3 major cloud providers with Ermetic and grant the identities exactly the permission needed to do their job is great!

Also, I almost stopped using completely the cloud providers' native tools and started to use Ermetic tools in order to list our multi-cloud and hyper-scaled inventory.

More about is, the activity log feature is one of the best in the market and while using it I'm able to find all our users and workloads actions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tenable Cloud Security?

If Ermetic connects the existing solution to a runtime product that will bring the information in real-time, it will be the perfect product.

Today, complementary products to ermetic are needed Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Tenable Cloud Security:

Try it! you have to understand that you don't see everything by your own and you have to make sure you have the right tool to show you what you don't know or see. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Tenable Cloud Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

You have to find the stuff that you don't know, with Emetic we were able to quickly see an overlook of our public accessed resources, Lambdas that uses clear txt credentials, lots of unused Roles and IAM users. We were able to get reports about best practice configuration and Compliance status. What kind of permissions do we truly use for a service and the connection between the AD user and the AWS SSO role he has in the organization account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Tenable Cloud Security:

If anyone is looking to solve Cloud Identity audit and assessment gaps, Ermetic is the perfect tool to get the job done. Their platform considers a different approach to IAM risk assessment that provides a full overview of where/how and how an identity is risky. Ermetic also provides a recommendation of adjusted permissions based on actual usage, not just providing risk based on a rule. Ermetic correlates all assets, roles, users, and functions to evaluate the risk. This in turn provides a high fidelity risk assessment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Tenable Cloud Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

Cloud identity risk assessment. This has been one of the most difficult areas to get visibility into because of lack of understanding and ability to correlate all IAM data into a single feed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
