Tenable.sc (formerly SecurityCenter) Reviews

I use Tenable.sc as the main vulnerability scanner on the system. All the user computers and network-connected computers are connected to the system. We implemented distributed architecture by using Tenable.sc and Nessus together. Tenable.sc works as the central command unit while Nessus controls and collects scanning results from Nessus agents. Distributed system allows you to see and manage all vulnerabilities from one place while it discovers new assets on the network. Therefore, Tenable.sc gives us maximum endpoint visibility and manages them easily. In addition to that, its user group privileges feature is perfect for big organizations with various teams like ours. We can assign the vulnerabilities to the related team to fix problems. Setting up and configuring the architecture is easy and the support team is very helpful on this.

Tenable is our current vulnerability management solution. It is currently used by the IT department, but it is scanning our entire environment. With Tenable we resolved our visibility issues where we did not have a good idea of all devices in our environment. We are also getting a good picture of all vulnerabilities and required patches on all server, network devices, and laptops.

Tenable.SC is used by my division of the university to assist in maintaining PCI DSS, NIST SP 800:171, FERPA and HIPAA compliance. By collecting and correlating our log data and connecting the data found in scans and network traffic, we are able to have a better view of the security of our data and systems.

Tenable SecurityCenter is used by our security team to detect and manage vulnerabilities. This is one of the best vulnerability management solutions. It has comprehensive coverage and visibility and real-time alerts and notifications. It offers the possibility to prioritize the vulnerabilities and consolidate and analyze all vulnerability data across the organization.

We use Tenable Security Center as an auditing tool for known hosts on a network or for a "catch all" for when we are doing black box testing. The tool is fantastic for either scenario and I highly recommend it. The clients that utilize Tenable Security Center usually use it across the whole department and or organization, depending on how large the organization is, that is. It is almost always used to address compliance within large organizations.

Tenable products are being used all across the organization for vulnerability management. This is the heart of our vulnerability and exception management process and we rely on Tenable products for providing accurate data of the vulnerabilities currently present in our environment right from Windows/Linux servers to PCs to network devices to mobile devices.
