81 TopicsNew Microsoft Azure Key Vault Integration
Summary We are pleased to announce that Tenable's credentialed scanning now supports Microsoft Azure Key Vault as a Privileged Access Management (PAM) integration. This will be available in Tenable One Vulnerability Management and Tenable Nessus Immediately. Change Tenable's credentialed scanning has been updated to include Microsoft Azure Key Vault as a new authentication method. Security teams can now store privileged credentials in Azure Key Vault and have Tenable retrieve them automatically at scan time using OAuth2 client-credentials authentication with a Microsoft Entra ID service principal. Credentials such as sensitive passwords and SSH private keys are maintained centrally inside the vault, they are never stored in Tenable scan policies and can be rotated seamlessly without requiring manual policy updates. The Azure Key Vault integration supports the following credential types: SSH Windows (SMB) Database (Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, DB2, MongoDB) VMware ESXi SOAP API VMware vCenter API Nutanix Prism Central Each Key Vault secret is expected to hold a JSON object containing one or more of the fields username, password, ssh_key, ssh_keyphrase, and domain, so a single secret can drive both password and SSH private-key-based target authentication. For SSH targets, privilege escalation may optionally reference a separate Key Vault secret whose password field is used as the sudo/su password. For more information see our Microsoft Azure Key Vault Integration user documentation: https://docs.tenable.com/Integrations.htm Impact No impact to current scans are expected; If customers encounter issues with this integration, please open a ticket with Technical Support.

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 Organizations relying on outdated Transport Layer Security (TLS) configurations or non-quantum-safe encryption are exposed to this risk without even knowing it.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. Reduce HNDL exposure: Proactively harden key exchange methods and ciphers before intercepted traffic becomes a future liability. Gain compliance evidence: Customers in regulated industries, such as healthcare and financial services, can easily prove compliance as quantum computing matures. To find these resources in your cloud environment, go to Tenable One Cloud Exposure and filter or query “non-ready PQC resources” using the Network Endpoint page or Explorer.

Summary The "Fully Scan Operational Technology" (OT) preference controls whether Nessus actively scans OT/ICS devices during a scan. This setting is intended to be disabled by default to avoid unintended disruption to sensitive operational technology environments. A long-standing setting in the Do not scan operational technology devices plugin caused this preference to default to enabled in a Basic Network Scan when the discovery type is not set to Custom. Change The default value for "Fully Scan Operational Technology" preference has been corrected from yes to no. Impact This fix will affect existing Basic Network scans automatically upon the next feed update — no scan recreation is required. Customers using Basic Network Scan policies with a non-custom discovery scan type will see the following behavioral change: Before change: "Fully Scan Operational Technology" was silently enabled, meaning OT devices may have been actively scanned. After change: "Fully Scan Operational Technology" will correctly default to disabled. Customers who intentionally want to scan OT devices should explicitly enable the "Fully Scan Operational Technology" preference by switching their scan policy's discovery type to Custom, which will expose the preference in the UI and allow it to be toggled on.

Updated: April 3, 2026 Summary Scanned printers will now have an OS artefact surfaced in their scan host metadata if the target has been identified as a printer when the “Scan Network Printers” policy option is disabled. This change will not cause any additional asset licenses to be consumed within Tenable VM or Tenable Security Center. Background Printers are notoriously unstable scan targets. Oftentimes, they can behave erratically when scanned, so some users prefer to avoid scanning them altogether. At present, there is a switch in the scan policies to prevent further scanning of a host when it's identified as a printer. To enable this setting, go to Settings -> Host Discovery -> Fragile devices - Scan Network Printers (Currently, this is a checkbox setting, default value “off”). With that said, how can the scanner know the target is a printer if it cannot be scanned? In reality, the scanner still performs very basic fingerprinting (usually via SNMP) in order to gather enough information to make an educated guess at the device type. When the scan target is thought to be a printer, it essentially gets marked as “Host/dead" in the scan KB. When this happens, the scanner will not perform any further active scanning. Changes With this update, the fingerprint used to identify the printer as such, will now be stored in the scan Knowledge Base (KB) so it can be processed by os_fingerprint2.nasl ("Post-scan OS Identification", plugin ID 83349) and surfaced as metadata in the scan result. The relevant policy setting located at Settings -> Host Discovery -> Fragile devices -> Scan Network Printers. With this update, the printer's OS information will now be surfaced if it is available, regardless of the selected value for this setting. Impact Users can now see the OS information for their printer devices that would have otherwise gone unreported if the scan is not configured to “Scan Network Printers”. As plugin ID 83349 generates no plugin output, only an “operating-system” tag will be added to the scan result (and stored in an exported .nessus file). This information will be visible only the in “Host/Asset Details” section of the Tenable product UI, i.e: Tenable Nessus: Scans -> [Folder] -> [Individual Scan Result] - > Host Details -> OS (sidebar) Tenable Vulnerability Management: Explore -> Assets -> [Asset] -> Details -> Operating System Scans -> Vulnerability Management Scans -> [Individual Scan Result] -> Scan Details -> Asset Details -> Operating System Tenable Security Center: Analysis -> IP Summary -> [IP address] -> System Information -> OS Scans -> Scan Results -> [Individual Scan Result] -> IP Summary -> [IP address] -> System Information -> OS Note, we expect this information to surface mainly in individual scan results. It would only be present in cumulative asset details if a licensed asset already exists for the target in question. This update will not cause additional assets to be created or consume any additional licenses. Affected Plugins 83349 - os_fingerprint2.nasl 11933 - dont_scan_printers.nasl 22481 - dont_scan_settings.nasl Targeted Release Date Wednesday, March 4, 20261.2KViews2likes2CommentsMay 2026 Tenable Product Newsletter

Summary Tenable has updated the NuGet package enumeration plugins to improve detection of installed NuGet packages on Linux/Unix scan targets. Change Before this update, the NuGet package enumeration plugins did not attempt to associate detected packages with an RPM or DEB package managed by the Linux distribution. This could cause packages to report vulnerabilities both based on a Linux distribution vendor's advisory and a CVE advisory from the NuGet package maintainer. After this update, these issues have been addressed. NuGet packages on Linux assets will be assessed to determine if they are managed by a Linux distribution's package manager, and if so, will be marked as “Managed” and will not report a vulnerability, unless the Show potential false alarms setting is enabled for the scan. Impact Most customers will notice improved accuracy in NuGet package vulnerability reporting. Scan results may show changes in detected vulnerabilities based on how packages were previously assessed. Affected plugins 190687 - NuGet Installed Packages (Linux / Unix) Target Release Date June 1, 2026Cisco Meraki API Host Guidance
Summary Tenable is announcing changes to our documentation for the Cisco Meraki API integration. Customers using a “unique” host in the “Cisco Meraki Host” field of the credential should use “api.meraki.com”, or a region-specific instead if applicable. Please refer to the documentation for full guidance. Tenable and Cisco Meraki Integration Guide Impact Customers using the Cisco Meraki API integration are encouraged to check their configurations and update them accordingly. This change in guidance addresses cases where some customers were experiencing HTTP 308 redirects, resulting in integration failures. This is also closely related to cases where customers were experiencing HTTP 403 errors, which has been addressed by changes in the Cisco Meraki API Web Application Firewall (WAF). Release Date Dec 15th, 2025Delinea Platform Authentication Support
Summary We are proud to announce that Tenable’s Delinea Secret Server Privileged Access Management (PAM) integration can now use Delinea Platform Authentication method. These updates are immediately available for scans in Tenable Vulnerability Management and Nessus Manager, with plans to release this feature at a later date in Tenable Security Center. Change With this addition, instead of just connecting to the standalone Secret Server, scans can now authenticate via the Delinea Platform, leveraging centralized identity and the security of the newer Delinea architecture. Delinea Platform Authentication method supports following credential types for Delinea Secret Server mode: Windows SSH Database Nutanix VMware ESX SOAP API VMware vCenter API Delinea Platform Authentication method also supports following the credential types for Delinea Secret Server Auto-Discovery mode: Windows SSH Database For more information see our user documentation: https://docs.tenable.com/integrations/Delinea/Content/Introduction.htm Impact No impact to current scans are expected; If customers encounter issues with this integration, please open a ticket with Technical Support.
