Tenable Security Center 6.7: Modern Visibility, Smarter Automation, Stronger Performance
With Tenable Security Center 6.7, you gain a faster, clearer, and more flexible way to manage vulnerabilities across your environment. This release modernizes the experience, strengthens automation, and improves performance to help you reduce risk more efficiently.
What’s New:
- Explore – Assets (Preview): See your environment through a modernized interface with structured data, flexible filtering, and grouping tools that make asset analysis faster and easier. Get a walkthrough >
- Triggered Agent Scanning: Automate Tenable Agent scans using your own triggers—like time intervals or file changes—so vulnerabilities are found as soon as they appear. See in action >
- Credential Verification Scan Policy: Confirm that your Windows and Unix credentials are working as expected with a simple scan policy designed to verify authentication success. Watch demo on demand >
What’s Improved:
- Consistent Asset Tracking: Asset tracking logic now matches Universal Repository behavior, giving you consistent visibility across IPv4 and IPv6 assets.
- Simplified Naming: Asset Lists are now Asset Tags, and object identifiers (formerly Tags) are now Labels for greater clarity.
- Smarter Scanning: Advanced scan policies can now toggle off new plugin families by default—so your customized scan policies don’t change unexpectedly. Get more details >
- More Accurate Results: Configure Freeze Windows to mark scans as Complete (not Partial) when impacted, so you always get full visibility into your results. See more here >
- Optimized Performance: Enjoy faster scan ingest and query performance, plus improved PostgreSQL security and efficiency.
- Expanded Integrations: Use updated PAM support for BeyondTrust and VMware vCenter, along with enhanced Red Hat repository mapping capabilities (more information is available here).
Before You Upgrade:
You can upgrade directly from Security Center 6.3.0 or higher. Hardware specifications have been updated—systems below the new recommendations will still upgrade, but performance may vary. Tenable Support can help you fine-tune configurations if needed.
Important Changes in 6.7.0:
- Web Application Scanning via Nessus is deprecated. Move your web app scanners to Tenable Core or Docker-based scanners.
- Kubernetes deployment support ends in this version. Security Center Kubernetes customers will migrate to Tenable Enclave Security, which delivers a secure, modern foundation for Kubernetes-based environments.
With these updates, you’ll gain a more responsive, scalable, and unified way to secure your environment—helping you move from detection to action with greater speed and confidence.
