Product update: Standardizing Tenable risk scoring Coming July 1: A new standard for VPR For the past several months, many customers 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. We're also enhancing our asset classification engine. As a result, customers with access to Asset Criticality Ratings (ACR) will see these scores more accurately reflect real-world business risk. Read the full update on Tenable Connect. Tenable Cloud Security Stop chasing ghosts. Start fixing what's actually exposed. This month, we’re trading “potential risk” for proof. Spotlight: Reachability, validated Network Scanner results now feed directly into our core risk engine. Instead of flagging every internet-facing asset, Tenable dynamically confirms what’s actually reachable across AWS, GCP, Azure, and OCI, so you chase toxic combinations on truly exposed assets, not shadows behind a WAF. Also new Unified accounts page. One view for every cloud and identity account. Goodbye, provider silos. More wins for your team Protect dev velocity. Exclude unresolvable CVEs from container scans so noise doesn’t break builds. Effortlessly scale triage. Turn any Explorer investigation into a permanent automation rule. Automate least privilege. Auto-generate custom roles for over-privileged Entra ID and GCP groups based on real usage. Find what others miss. Updated engine surfaces vulnerabilities buried in nested JAR files. View full release notes → Tenable Vulnerability Management Introducing VM-Native OT Discovery Safely identify and profile connected PLCs, HMIs, and IoT devices using the vulnerability management toolset you already own. No specialized hardware or complex deployments required. Turn your existing IT security tools into a safe OT discovery engine today and get visibility into your IT/OT security gap. Watch the guided demo to see this new capability in action. Review the latest documentation for Scan Templates and Discovery Settings to get started. Find and fix hidden risks across your infrastructure To protect your environment, you need a clear view of every asset and vulnerability. New reports and dashboards give you visibility to find hidden exposures in your Java, database, and operating system layers before they lead to a disruption. Identify every Java vulnerability: Go beyond a simple update to secure Java and see how unmanaged applications expand your risk. Java visibility and exposures dashboard: Get a full view of your Java ecosystem to find legacy flaws and library exploits that could give attackers access to your internal network. Java visibility and exposures report: Turn complex scan data into a clear map of your assets to find hidden weaknesses in unpatched installations before they cause a disruption. Prioritize your database security: Protecting your data depends on knowing which databases are most vulnerable. This new report and dashboard help your team close exposures and meet audit requirements by highlighting critical gaps. Database application visibility and exposures dashboard: Use this one-stop shop to see all supported and unsupported databases in one place. You can quickly see which assets are exploitable or have been active for too long, so you know what to patch first. Database visibility and exposures report: Streamline your compliance audits and vulnerability assessments with a clear breakdown of your database risks and best practices. Inventory your assets and improve scan accuracy: Full visibility requires knowing exactly what is running on your network. Operating system and application inventory with data troubleshooting report: Get a high-level summary of your OS and application instances. Includes specific queries to help you identify and fix scan fidelity issues for data accuracy and effective security operations. Tenable Nessus We’re thrilled to announce that Tenable Nessus v10.12 is now available for early access, with general availability expected later this month. This release streamlines your workflow with a revised interface and updated security protocols. Organize scans: Simply drag and drop existing scans from a list view directly into a folder or directory for easier organization. Import files: Instantly import a scan file (like .nessus) by dragging it from the local desktop into Nessus. OpenSSL 3.5 support: Nessus now fully supports OpenSSL 3.5, ensuring your vulnerability assessment operations meet the latest cryptographic standards. FIPS-140.3 support: Support for the FIPS 140-3 standard has been added.
