It brings vulnerability, cloud, identity, and OT exposure into a single view, which makes it much easier to explain overall risk to executives. The third-party connectors are a big plus: ingesting data from tools like CrowdStrike and Claroty xDome lets us enrich the asset inventory and build exposure views and dashboards that reflect the client’s real environment, not just Tenable’s own data.
Its plugin coverage and scan accuracy are excellent, and VPR makes prioritization much more realistic than relying on CVSS alone. The API is also a big strength: we’ve automated bulk creation of compliance scans and built custom reporting from exports, which saves us a lot of time when managing multiple clients at scale.
It gives clear, continuous visibility into Active Directory and Entra ID risk without installing agents on domain controllers. The Indicators of Exposure come with plain explanations and concrete remediation steps, which makes it easy to hand findings straight to AD admins. The Indicators of Attack add real-time detection of things like DCSync and Kerberoasting, and it fits well alongside the rest of the Tenable platform.
