Cisco Meraki Integration
Summary Tenable is proud to announce our new integration with Cisco Meraki Dashboard. Cisco Meraki Dashboard is a centralized cloud-based platform used to manage and monitor Cisco Meraki devices. It provides a web-based interface for configuring, troubleshooting, and securing global network and IoT deployments. Tenable’s integration with the Cisco Meraki Dashboard API allows users to leverage our vulnerability management solutions against devices that are managed in their Meraki environment including security appliances, switches, routers, and other supported devices. Scope Customers using Tenable Vulnerability Management and Nessus Manager will be able to configure up to a maximum of five Cisco Meraki credentials in a single scan policy. The Cisco Meraki credential can be found under the "Miscellaneous" category of credentials. Detailed information about the integration and configurations can be found by visiting our integration documentation page in the link for Cisco Meraki. https://docs.tenable.com/Integrations.htm Plugins Plugins related to the integration can be divided into two categories; integration and supporting plugins. The integration plugins gather the credential settings, collect data from the Cisco Meraki API, and store this data for usage by the supporting plugins. Whereas supporting plugins detect the presence of Cisco Meraki devices and perform vulnerability detections against the device attributes; mainly primarily firmware. Integration Plugins Cisco Meraki Settings Cisco Meraki Data Collection Integration Status Supporting Plugins Cisco Meraki Detection Tenable Research will also release 6 initial plugins to detect Cisco Meraki versions vulnerable to several different high-impact CVEs. Please note that these plugins will require a paranoia level of 2 (“Show potential false alarms”). Impact The Nessus Scan Information plugin (plugin ID 19506) will report credentialed checks for Cisco Meraki devices through the use of the Cisco Meraki integration. Customers will see credentialed checks ‘no’ if a Cisco Meraki Device was detected while using the integration and the firmware version that we collected for the device is not configured or absent. Otherwise, customers can expect to see ‘yes, via HTTPS’ if successful. Release Date Tenable Vulnerability Management and Nessus Manager: July 3rd, 2025 Tenable Security Center: TDB

See the documentation for more details. Define projects by resource tags and Azure resource groups. Building on the Projects feature announced in the March 2025 newsletter, Tenable Cloud Security now enables you to scope projects using resource tags (across all Tenable-supported cloud providers) and Azure resource group name patterns. This enhancement provides greater flexibility and granularity in organizing projects based on how your cloud environments are structured: by team, business function, or application boundary. The evolving Projects capability supports stronger cloud security maturity by reducing fragmented visibility and siloed inventories, with dedicated views of resources and security findings, and project-specific dashboards for each team. See the documentation for more details. Enhanced CVSS scoring support with CVSS v4 priority. When multiple CVSS versions are available for a vulnerability, CVSS v4 is prioritized to ensure the severity assessment is the most current and precise. It offers improved accuracy, flexibility, and contextual awareness, enabling better prioritization and automation than CVSS v3. Enhanced 3rd-party support for Microsoft Entra ID apps. Tenable now offers greater IAM visibility for Azure users through enhanced Microsoft Entra ID third-party application mapping, with support for more than 350 applications. From the third-party widget in the IAM Dashboard, you can select a vendor per cloud component and navigate directly to the Identity Intelligence page, filtered by that vendor. You can also now view vendor details for each application in the Microsoft Entra ID Application Inventory page, making it easier to manage third-party applications across your environment. >> To read the rest of the May newsletter, click here.
