Browse vetted listings Read the blog Read the full security review process Tenable One Vulnerability Management Prioritize what matters: Top 25 Exploitable and Unsupported Exposures dashboard When every finding feels critical, deciding where to focus your remediation is tough. The Top 25 Exploitable and Unsupported Exposures dashboard helps you pinpoint active threats across your environment by organizing your highest-risk vulnerabilities, affected systems, and exact fix paths into a single view. Check out the new dashboard today. Learn more Streamlined integration: OAuth support for Jira and ServiceNow You can now connect to Jira and ServiceNow using OAuth authentication. This eliminates the requirement for admin-level accounts in your target tools, making it easier to comply with internal least-privilege policies and speed up integration sign-offs. OAuth is an optional connection type. Your current integrations will continue working with zero disruption, allowing you to update your setup whenever your team is ready. Read the release notes Tenable One Cloud Exposure Get visibility into Microsoft Entra Agent ID identities AI agents are being developed at a rapid pace and are becoming a new class of identities, giving security teams a way to see and govern them before they become a blind spot. Tenable One Cloud Exposure now supports Microsoft Entra Agent ID identities by automatically discovering and tagging agent identity blueprints, their principals, agent identities, and agent users. Security teams can discover more, catch more excessive privileges, and examine blueprints. Now, you can see these identities next to your other non-human identities in Tenable One Cloud Exposure. Why it’s important: Discovery and inventory: Auto-discovering and tagging each of the four object types, then listing them in the inventory, gives you a baseline of which agents exist and how they relate to each other. Permission and configuration auditing: Agents are often over-permissioned because it’s easier to grant broad access than to scope it tightly. Being able to inspect properties lets you catch excessive privileges, risky configurations, and ownerless agents. Hierarchy analysis and supply chain risk: Explorer queries let you trace blueprints to their agents (top-down) or agents back to their blueprints (bottom-up). That matters because one compromised or misconfigured blueprint, including one shared across tenants, passes the problem to every agent built from it. Read the blog Read the product documentation Tenable One OT Exposure Your OT and IT assets, one unified view Our latest Tenable One OT Exposure release brings OT assets, findings, and policy violations into the Tenable One platform through an updated data pipeline. You get one place to see and manage exposure across your converged environment. View OT assets alongside IT assets in a single, unified view, with no need to switch between tools to understand your full attack surface. Apply asset tags and role-based access control to OT assets, so the right teams see the right data and can organize and prioritize work the way you already do for IT. Connect OT findings and policy violations with data from other Tenable products to get context to understand risk that spans IT and OT. Assets, findings, and policy violations now flow through the updated Tenable One data format and APIs, replacing the legacy pipeline. Fixes and performance improvements: A range of bug fixes and performance enhancements make day-to-day use smoother. Update today to put these new capabilities to work in your environment. Explore the release notes Tenable Security Center Simplified deployment for shared database environments Our latest release delivers an enhanced database installer to ensure installation succeeds in environments with existing PostgreSQL schemas, reducing deployment complexity in shared database environments. Flexible PostgreSQL installation: The installer now handles non-empty public schemas that contain non-Tenable Security Center tables. This reduces deployment complexity and removes a common roadblock in shared database environments. Fixes for upgrades, scanning, and more: This release also includes bug fixes that improve upgrade reliability, scan accuracy, scan result cleanup, and query performance with certain HTTPS certificate configurations. Update today to apply these new improvements to your environment. Explore the release notes Tenable Nessus Tenable Nessus 10.12.5 focuses on plugin update security Tenable Nessus 10.12.5 was released on Oct. 1, with a focus on strengthening how Tenable Nessus handles plugin updates. Here are the highlights: Stronger plugin security: Multiple conditions related to memory-safety and denial-of-service conditions in plugins have been addressed. Plugin archives pushed through the legacy update channel now require a valid Tenable signature before they are extracted or loaded. Scan policy import fix: An SQL injection vulnerability in the scan policy import functionality has been resolved. Signature file required for manual plugin updates: Manual plugin updates for Tenable Nessus and Tenable Nessus Manager now require the signature file. Tenable Security Center plugin updates, Tenable Nessus Manager’s agent plugin updates, and Tenable Nessus application updates are not affected. If you update plugins manually, such as in air-gapped environments, please ensure the signature file is a part of your process. New platform support: Tenable Nessus now supports AlmaLinux 10. And much more. You can upgrade directly from any previously supported version. We recommend reviewing the notes for any versions you skip. Read the release notes Review the Tenable Product Security Advisory (TNS-2026-17) Tenable Patch Management Intelligent rollbacks, expanded Linux coverage, and hardened platform security You shouldn’t have to risk breaking critical applications just to keep your fleet secure. Rollbacks exist to restore stability, not rip out host applications and force a manual cleanup. The latest release includes: Smarter rollbacks: Real-time client checks prevent destructive application removals during patch uninstalls. Expanded fleet support: Complete native coverage for Fedora 44 and Ubuntu 26.04 Long-Term Support (LTS).

Reply below or contact Tenable Support. -Team TenableExchange Inspector Is Now Live on the CyberAgents Exchange
“Is it safe to run?” That’s the question that can give security teams pause after they find a promising open source AI agent. Starting today, the CyberAgents Exchange AI Inspector (aka, “Exchange Inspector”) answers that. With the Exchange Inspector, select community-built AI agents, skills, MCP servers, and playbooks on the Exchange now carry the Exchange Inspector vetted tag — the highest level of security review a listing can receive. We built it through Tenable’s participation in the OpenAI Daybreak Defense Network, and it’s the first major release from that collaboration. To earn the tag, a listing has to clear three stages of enterprise-grade review: Stage 1: Automated screening with Tenable One AI Exposure. The skills-inspection engine parses the agent’s instructions, the tools it can invoke, and the data it can reach, then flags prompt injection, hidden instructions, hardcoded secrets, and risky data access. Stage 2: Frontier assessment by OpenAI GPT Cyber models. The models reason through the code and its threat model to surface novel attack techniques that signature-based checks miss. Stage 3: Hands-on verification by Tenable security researchers. Our team installs and runs the listing in a clean environment to confirm how it actually behaves, not just how it’s documented. Across those three stages, the review tests 15 types of security issues at three layers of the stack, from conventional flaws like SSRF and path traversal to agent-specific ones like excessive permissions and memory poisoning. Three listings already carry the Exchange Inspector vetted tag: SOC Hunter, the threat-hunting skill our own security team uses to cut hunt times by up to 75% Splunk Tenable Cloud Security Skill, built by Splunk for cloud posture investigation Remediation Priority & Impact Agent, which turns raw Tenable findings into a prioritized fix list Check out all of the open source AI security agents on the CyberAgents Exchange.

Welcome to your monthly round-up of the latest Tenable product updates, platform enhancements, and community news. This month, we’re bringing frontier AI reasoning into exposure management, deepening cloud and vulnerability visibility, and expanding how the community vets AI agents before deployment. Tenable One - Platform updates Claude Mythos 5 is coming to Tenable One with Adversary View Attackers don’t exploit systems in isolation. They chain together scattered, low-signal evidence like netstat entries, cached accounts, and active connections that traditional rules engines can’t connect, and that your team doesn’t have time to piece together manually. This is where frontier AI models shine. Tenable One Adversary View, launching this September, brings the power of Anthropic’s Claude Mythos 5 directly into the Tenable One Exposure Management Platform. Built on the Project Glasswing collaboration between Tenable and Anthropic, Adversary View applies advanced cyber reasoning to your existing exposure data, uncovering hidden vulnerability chains, visualizing how an attacker would actually move through your environment, and surfacing evidence-backed fixes to break those chains before attackers exploit them — all within an agentic harness that keeps the AI’s reasoning controlled and auditable. Take advantage of Claude Mythos 5 to tackle complex exposure management challenges. Cut through the noise with a ranked, prioritized list of the vulnerability chains that matter most, backed by evidence and specific remediation guidance. Move at the speed of adversaries by pairing Claude Mythos 5’s advanced reasoning with the exposure intelligence you already have in Tenable One — no new tools required. Read the blog post Explore the guided demo 3 new connectors bring GitHub and GitLab findings into Tenable One Tenable One connectors combine your third-party security tools with Tenable’s native sensor data for one view of risk across your attack surface. Three new connectors extend that coverage, pulling static application security testing (SAST), software composition analysis (SCA), and secret scanning findings straight into Tenable One. GitHub Code Scanning: Consolidates SAST and secret scanning findings, covering both vulnerable code and exposed credentials, into the same risk view as every other exposure you track. GitHub Dependabot: Brings SCA alerts on vulnerable dependencies, so a flawed package deep in your supply chain gets prioritized against everything else exposing you. GitLab Connector: Covers SAST, SCA, and Secret Detection findings in one connector, consolidating what’s otherwise split across multiple tools into a single risk view. Requires GitLab Ultimate to ingest findings. All three are native connectors; add the connector, and findings start showing up in Tenable One. Set up GitHub Code Scanning Set up GitHub Dependabot Set up GitLab Connector CyberAgents Exchange Exchange Inspector vets AI agents before they reach your environment Tenable and OpenAI unveiled the CyberAgents Exchange AI Inspector, which pairs OpenAI’s GPT cyber models with Tenable One AI Exposure and expert researcher review to screen AI agents, skills, MCP servers, and multi-agent playbooks for prompt injection, PII exposure, and supply-chain risks before they’re deployed. Combines OpenAI GPT cyber models, Tenable One AI Exposure, and expert researcher review to vet AI agents before deployment. Screens AI agents, skills, MCP servers, and multi-agent playbooks for prompt injection, PII exposure, and supply-chain risks. Gives practitioners insight into production-ready AI agents and CISOs the confidence to approve their use. The Exchange Inspector builds on the CyberAgents Exchange registry, which has already drawn more than 100 AI listings. Exchange Inspector is expected to be available in September. Read the technical blog Read the press release Tenable One Vulnerability Management Visualize your security trends over time You can finally see exactly where your security metrics are heading, not just where they stand today. With newly added Trending Widgets, you can track your asset data and findings as daily line charts, giving you the historical context you need to accurately monitor your progress.

Check out the Trending Widget documentation Release notes for the full details Tenable One Cloud Exposure Expanded Kubernetes and container topology in Tenable One Cloud Exposure A comprehensive overview of Kubernetes and container topology is essential for risk-based prioritization because you have to see the whole picture of the resources, workloads, and clusters a vulnerability touches to know what’s actually risky. Now, the “graph” tab in Tenable One Cloud Exposure gives you the full structural layout of a Kubernetes cluster, all the way down to a vulnerable container image, in one interactive view. What’s new: Guided relationship picker: By expanding any node in the graph, it now surfaces a categorized menu (Compute, IAM, Kubernetes, Containers, Management, Network, Risk) so you can choose which connection to explore next. Full Kubernetes depth: Namespaces, roles, role bindings, service accounts, configuration maps, and workloads all surface as first-class nodes, whether the cluster is EKS, AKS, GKE, or self-managed. The Kubernetes graph provides a holistic view of cluster contents, namespaces, and resource relationships, while allowing you to effortlessly navigate from clusters to underlying virtual machines and specific workloads, such as business-critical services. It also enables you to explore vulnerability instances linked to container images, ensuring they have complete context for risk prioritization and informed decision-making.

At Tenable, we are committed to providing the most accurate, defensible, and actionable view of organizational risk. To achieve this, we must continually refine the intelligence that powers your prioritization. On July 1, 2026, we are implementing a series of foundational updates to our risk scoring engines. As part of this update, you may see changes to your risk scores, depending on the Tenable product(s) you own. These changes simplify your workflow by standardizing scoring on a single, high-fidelity model for vulnerability and asset risk. The new standard for VPR For the past several months, many of you have utilized VPR (Beta) to gain deeper insights into exploitability. We are excited to announce that on July 1, this model will be promoted to the primary Vulnerability Priority Rating (VPR) across the Tenable platform. By standardizing on this advanced model, we are retiring legacy VPR scoring to ensure every customer benefits from our most sophisticated threat intelligence. The new version of VPR incorporates more threat intelligence and vulnerability metadata so that you can focus on the 1.6% of vulnerabilities that actually matter. Better context through enhanced asset classification Alongside the VPR update, we are enhancing our asset classification engine. This update improves how we identify the function and importance of assets across your entire attack surface, including Cloud, OT, and third-party devices. As a result, customers with access to Asset Criticality Ratings (ACR) for VM assets will see these scores more accurately reflect real-world business risk. What this means for you These are backend enhancements designed to provide immediate value with zero manual configuration. On July 1, your dashboards, reports, and APIs will automatically reflect these updated metrics. Because both VPR and ACR serve as inputs to Cyber Exposure Score (CES) and Asset Exposure Score (AES), customers using these scores may see changes that reflect a more accurate understanding of exposure. Customer FAQ What happens to the VPR (Beta) score in the Tenable UI? The Beta label will be removed. The high-fidelity model you’ve been previewing will become the standard VPR. The legacy version of VPR will be retired to ensure a single, unified source or truth. Do I need to rewrite my custom API scripts using VPR? No. For customers using APIs, updated values will be mapped into legacy VPR fields on the back end to ensure compatibility and a smooth transition for your scripts and third-party tools. How does this affect my SLAs? Because many organizations use VPR as their operational prioritization layer, your SLA statistics and remediation tracking will now reflect the more precise scoring model. This helps ensure your team is meeting response goals for the vulnerabilities that pose the highest actual risk. How does Enhanced Asset Classification affect my scores? The system now automatically identifies the function and criticality of assets across Cloud, OT, and third-party sources. This improved context leads to more accurate Asset Criticality Rating (ACR) adjustments. For customers with access to ACR, this ensures your most critical business assets are effectively prioritized. What actions does my team need to take, and when will the changes be reflected in my container? These updates will occur automatically within your Tenable console. Depending on the size of your environment, it may take time for score recalculations to be fully reflected across your console. For a detailed guide on our enhanced VPR, check out this FAQ.

Read the full post on Tenable Connect Tenable One AI Exposure Now covering all major AI platforms and developer tools AI adoption is outpacing most teams’ ability to govern it, and every new LLM, agent, or IDE plugin adds another blind spot to the attack surface. Tenable One AI Exposure closes that gap further, adding support for Google Gemini and extending coverage across the tools where AI actually gets used inside your environment. Expanded coverage and capabilities include: Full LLM coverage: Monitor prompts, responses, and usage patterns across Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, OpenAI ChatGPT Enterprise, and Microsoft Copilot, with policy enforcement and detection of risky or unauthorized activity. Broader shadow AI visibility: Discover sanctioned and unsanctioned AI use across Model Context Protocol (MCP) deployments, AI-native IDEs like Cursor, Windsurf, and Trae, and AI-enabled browser extensions. Faster remediation workflows: Route policy violations straight into Jira or ServiceNow, or trigger automated alerts over email, Slack, or Teams, so issues get worked instead of just logged. Read the Tenable One AI Exposure press release Tenable One Cloud Exposure Identify non-compliant post-quantum cryptography cloud resources Encrypted traffic captured today can be stored and decrypted later, once quantum computing matures, a threat known as harvest-now-decrypt-later (HNDL). Organizations relying on outdated Transport Layer Security (TLS) configurations or non-quantum-safe encryption are exposed to this risk without even knowing it. Tenable One Cloud Exposure now helps customers identify non-compliant post-quantum cryptography (PQC) cloud resources to support future compliance regulations. We’ve added four new properties to the Network Endpoint profile for HTTPS-supported endpoints. The enhancement allows teams to: Get visibility into quantum readiness: See which endpoints already support post-quantum cryptography and which don’t, so you can prioritize upgrades ahead of emerging compliance mandates. Get all non-PQC-compliant resources listed in one query. Identify weak encryption faster: Surface outdated TLS versions and vulnerable cipher suites across your environment without manual audits or separate scanning tools.

OT agents for isolated networks: Get asset visibility and vulnerability coverage in air-gapped and disconnected environments (no sensors or live connectivity required) with offline scan profiles and a local agent UI for field technicians. Power substation anomaly detection: Passively monitors GOOSE streams and flags anomalous activity, such as configuration revision changes, giving utilities and grid operators critical visibility. Yokogawa DCS activity detection: Surfaces critical operational changes on Yokogawa Centum VP systems, so you can spot engineering activity that may signal unauthorized access. Centralized subnet management: Define CIDR boundaries and toggle monitoring across all ICPs from a single interface in Enterprise Manager, eliminating per-site configuration. Saved Views: Save, name, and reuse custom filter combinations across asset and findings views, cutting down repetitive setup during investigations. Asset side panel: Review asset details without leaving the findings or asset grid, for faster pivoting during investigations. Upgrade today to put these new capabilities to work in your environment. Explore the release notes Tenable Security Center Sharper visibility, streamlined operations The latest release of Tenable Security Center 6.9 brings several upgrades to help you accelerate your self-hosted vulnerability management program.

Tenable Nessus scanner support via Sensor Proxy: Link Tenable Nessus scanners through the Sensor Proxy service for more flexible deployments and horizontal scaling across large enterprise and Tenable Enclave Security environments. Windows LAPS credential support: Dynamic credential retrieval from Active Directory (AD) strengthens scan security and reduces the admin burden of credential management. Expanded PAM Kerberos authentication: Support across BeyondTrust, Delinea, and CyberArk integrations gives you tighter credential control. One-click diagnostic bundle upload: Submit diagnostic files directly to Tenable Support from within your console, so we can resolve your cases faster. (Requires a valid Tenable Nessus feed license.
