Best VM tool to find the gaps in your infra: Tenable.sc

Tenable.sc provides the complete vulnerability information in my infra. Its best vulnerability management tool to be installed on-premises which can scan the entire infra and give the consolidated reports on the loopholes in infra so that we can patch those. It's so easy to install and GUI is user-friendly.
  • On-premises solution
  • Customized reports based upon standard industry regularities.
  • Continuous asset discovery
  • Passive scanning
Cons
  • Centralized vulnerability management with sensors.
  • Network health assessment and Incident response.
  • For alerting or notification, it should also support the SMS gateway.
Tenable.sc is best suited for those organizations who are not very comfortable with Cloud and want an on-premises solution. If any organization has to follow some guidelines that no data should go to the cloud, in this case, Tenable.sc is a perfect fit as it's installed in the infra Datacenter and no data goes to Cloud. Tenable.sc won't be appropriate for those who have their infra setup on cloud.

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.
  • Vulnerability management from one place
  • Maximum endpoint visibility
  • Easy to set up and plan the structure
  • Support desk quickly responses
  • Well-prepared documentation
  • Broad scanning type
  • Supports various compliance standards
  • User groups allows coordination between teams
Cons
  • Tagging and naming all the endpoints takes time
When you have an important infrastructure with a network that consists of lots of devices, the vulnerabilities of each one of them become harder. Therefore, Tenable offers a real solution on managing vulnerabilities and maximizing endpoint visibility on the network. Its compliance check scanning is also significant when you are an organization that is externally audited. It is easy to install on all your devices with a small script. Later, Tenable.sc takes care of the agents to keep them updated, control their status, command them to scan, collect the results.

Tenable.sc is the best vulnerability management solution in the market

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.
  • Reporting.
  • Dashboards.
  • It gives you control of your environment.
Cons
  • Tenable could make it easier to report on missing reg key.
  • Tenable can also make it easier to report on os level patches vs application patches.
Tenable is well suited in environments where upper-level management is heavily involved and interested in vulnerability management. As it has exceptionally easy to read and understand reports and dashboards for execs to digest and read.

Tenable SC, well worth the cost

Tenable.sc [(formerly SecurityCenter)] is being used for our vulnerability management program across the whole organization. It identifies weaknesses in our infrastructure that need addressed.
  • Identifies vulnerabilities
  • Measures CIS Compliance
  • Vast majority of reporting capabilities
Cons
  • Big Learning Curve
  • Unable to do AWS or other cloud scanning
[Tenable.sc (formerly SecurityCenter)] does very well for internal scanning for vulnerabilities, however it needs to be combined with Tenable.io in order to do cloud scanning.

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.
  • Correlating log data to security scans.
  • Active and passive scanning.
  • Data reporting.
Cons
  • Easier API access to data.
  • GUI to develop normalization rules (as opposed to scripting in the shell).
It is a matter of scale more than anything. Our Tenable.SC implementation works because of the size of our environment. Rolling all of its tools into once license and package makes it easy to connect and work with our data.
