Hello All, I'm excited to announce the newest version...

Hello All,

I'm excited to announce the newest version of Tenable.io Web Application Scanning is GA for Tenable.io users who don't currently use WAS. Highlights of the new version include:

  • UI now matches Iris aka "new interface"
  • Unified visibility of web applications and infrastructure with the dashboard system. Users can create custom dashboards using both WAS + VM widgets in the one dashboard
  • Improved detections for Single Page Applications
  • WAS RBAC now applies to all data views, meaning if you don't have access to a scan then you don't see the data in dashboards & workbenches.
  • 2 new scan templates, SSL/TLS to validate you have the right certificate & encryption settings for your server & Config Audit that reviews externally discoverable configuration items that are exposed by webservers. These scans take seconds to set up and return results in minutes.
  • An entirely rebuilt UI core set of services for better UI performance, ease of adding new items, fast response to dashboard queries and built on modern systems that should be much easier to maintain
  • New API to go along with the new UI, versioned as V2

    Hi All, apologies for the delay. We're rolling out the new version of WAS to customers who don't already have it because there's a significant data migration effort going on behind the scenes and we want to ensure existing customers have a smooth transition. The good news is that the WAS team is almost done with this migration and existing WAS customers should be able to transition to the new interface in June. Please reach out to your account teams for more details and to schedule a demo of the new interface in the meantime.

    I've been waiting an extremely long time for the new dashboard to be integrated with WAS. This is initially some wonderful news, but why oh why is this only available for customers without a license? This just really continues to put a bad taste in my month for the .IO product. Why provide a new product if you're going to isolate the user base from certain aspects and specifically target those who are actually paying for a WAS license? I assume if you are not a license holder and you subscribe you keep the new dashboard?

    What's the catch here Tenable?

    "The newest version of Tenable.io Web Application Scanning is GA for Tenable.io users who don't currently use WAS".

    This doesn't particularly make sense, if you don't use WAS why would you be getting these features... which you cannot use? Are these available for customers with WAS licenses?

  • Hi Sean, ​That is a wonderfull announcement. But, I would like to know when this new version Will be available for current users of Tenable.io WAS?

    I am looking forward to this news since I heard about the development of this new version.
