Tenable One

Tenable Hexa AI: Intelligence into action at machine speed.

We are thrilled to announce that Tenable Hexa AI, the agentic engine of the Tenable One Exposure Management Platform, is now generally available. Tenable Hexa AI orchestrates and automates security workflows to accelerate risk reduction. 

  • Built-in or custom agents: Start immediately with our pre-built agents for common security tasks like asset management and dashboard creation, or build custom agents via the MCP server for your unique environment. 
  • Execute the fix: Tenable Hexa AI handles complex multi-step tasks like identifying the root cause of a threat and automatically creating the necessary remediation tickets.
  • Automate with confidence: You define the guardrails. Every action is fully auditable and requires the level of human oversight you choose, so you can scale automation without risking your production environment.

Get more details on Tenable Connect or read the documentation. To learn more about how to leverage Tenable Hexa AI, reach out to your account team or contact us.


The Tenable One Open Connector

Connect more. See more. Act faster.

We built Tenable One to be the open, connected hub that turns your scattered tools into a one-stop shop for risk reduction. While our standard Connectors already keep your favorite tools in sync, we’re taking integration to the next level with the new Tenable One Open Connector.

We're no longer just talking about official integrations; we're talking about bringing in your data from across unsupported or custom tools, spreadsheets, and even homegrown internal systems.

What this means for you:

  • Get a more complete view of risk by bringing your security data together in a single, contextual view.
  • Unlock an open, flexible platform for your security stack by staying independent of pre-built integrations.
  • Act faster with automated data syncs that keep your information always current.
  • Tailor your data mapping to enable precise segmentation that fits your organization’s needs.

Ready to achieve a truly unified view of your entire attack surface?

Lifecycle management in attack path analysis

Take control of your security workflows with our new lifecycle management features in attack path analysis. You can now manually transition attack techniques through specific stages — To Do, In Review, In Progress, Resolved, and Excluded — to ensure seamless collaboration across your team.

What’s new:

  • Manual technique control: Track progress accurately by assigning specific statuses to each technique.
  • Smart attack path sync: When you update a technique’s status, the system automatically updates the status of all related attack paths to reflect that change.
  • Unified workflow: Align your team around a shared lifecycle, providing a clear and consistent view of every identified threat.

Tenable One + Recorded Future integration

Our new Recorded Future connector bridges the gap between your internal exposure data and the external threat landscape, giving you a single source of truth to accelerate remediation where it matters most.

By layering Recorded Future’s threat intelligence over Tenable’s deep attack surface visibility, you can now achieve:

  • Truly unified visibility: View high-fidelity threat intelligence alongside your full exposure data in one pane of glass.
  • Holistic context: Instantly see how internal asset criticality aligns with real-world exploit trends.
  • Targeted remediation: Ignore the noise and focus exclusively on the vulnerabilities threat actors are actively weaponizing in the wild.

Tenable integrates with the Claude Compliance API for AI governance 

Tenable has announced an integration between the Tenable One Exposure Management Platform and the Claude Compliance API. This new capability provides security and compliance teams with unprecedented visibility and governance over enterprise AI usage directly within their existing workflows.

Key highlights of this release include:

  • Granular visibility: Monitor enterprise Claude AI interactions, including chats and file uploads, natively within Tenable One.
  • Risk detection: Identify malicious or suspicious activity across your AI ecosystem.
  • Regulatory alignment: Ensure AI usage complies with corporate acceptable-use policies and global mandates like the EU AI Act.

This integration is available immediately for all Tenable One customers, allowing organizations to safely adopt Claude Enterprise at scale while proactively managing AI-related risks.

 

Tenable One Cloud Exposure 


This month, we are focusing on automated orchestration and shifting security further left into native developer workflows.

What's New: 

  • Retroactive cloud automations: Apply new or re-enabled automation rules retrospectively to your entire backlog of cloud findings to wipe out historical cloud risks in a single click.
  • 280 cloud-native secret types: Our original generic categories are now split into 280 specific data types (like GitHub App Tokens), allowing you to customize sensitivity criteria to fit your exact cloud compliance requirements.
  • Native PR scanning (IaC): Catch security risks natively inside GitHub and Azure DevOps pull requests so developers can fix configuration errors directly on the relevant lines of code before merging.
  • Windows container scans: Maintain robust protection across your entire application footprint with shift-left vulnerability scanning that now supports Windows-based container images within cloud CI/CD pipelines.
  • On-demand registry scans: Manually push critical cloud container images or full repositories to the top of the scan queue to instantly verify your security fixes.

For more information on these updates, please view “documentation” inside the Tenable One Cloud Exposure interface.

 

Tenable One Vulnerability Management

Automate remediation with direct ticketing

Stop bouncing between disconnected tools. You can now create Jira or ServiceNow tickets directly within your Explore Findings view and launch Exposure Response Initiatives straight from Vulnerability Intelligence. Even better, Tenable automatically closes these tickets the moment a vulnerability is fixed, eliminating tedious manual cleanup for your team.

To keep your security and IT teams aligned, we've also added live ticket log tracking inside the finding details page, new ticket filters for your findings table, and easy exports for Exposure Response logs. To get started, check out our documentation or interactive tour.

Clear your blind spots and validate your security coverage

To protect your network, you need to know your security tools are working correctly. New dashboards and reports help you eliminate hidden gaps and prioritize fixes faster.

  • The program health dashboard monitors your deployment health and scanning coverage. It gives you a central view to ensure your security agents are active and fully patched, preventing silent operational failures.
  • The program health report unifies fragmented asset data and scan authentication indicators into a single document. It resolves conflicting inventories and credential issues, giving you a clean, trusted report to plan and execute remediation.
  • The endpoint application visibility dashboard cuts out the hours your team spends hunting down software inventories. It automatically consolidates application data across endpoints so you can prioritize fixes based on real-world exploit likelihood and deployment scale.
