Tenable Cloud Security

Tenable Cloud Security (TCS) is a smart, identity-enabled, and actionable cloud security technology that addresses the particular challenges of multi-cloud settings. It is a unified Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) that combines several critical security functions such as Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM), Vulnerability Management, and Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) security into a single agentless solution.

The platform offers end-to-end visibility across key cloud providers (AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud) and the entire application lifecycle, from the developer's first code commit (Build-time) to active deployment (Runtime). TCS uses an agentless architecture to maintain a continuous, up-to-date inventory of all cloud assets, removing the operational overhead associated with agent deployment and management.

TCS's sophisticated risk prioritization capabilities are a key competitive advantage. It doesn't just find individual security flaws; it uses contextual analysis and extensive Tenable Research threat intelligence to identify "toxic combinations" scenarios in which multiple risks (e.g., a critical vulnerability, an exposed misconfiguration, and excessive identity permissions) combine to form a highly exploitable attack path. This emphasis on combined risk enables security teams to focus their limited efforts on the threats most likely to be exploited by hackers.
