Tenable announces enhancements to cloud and application security portfolio enable, the cyberexposure company, has announced a series of new product and ecosystem enhancements to Tenable.io, its cloud-based cyberexposure platform, to help security teams discover, assess and manage cybersecurity risks across highly dynamic cloud environments. Organisations require both comprehensive security approaches and visibility into assets, vulnerabilities and exposures. T These enterprise-ready cloud enhancements are the first ever to deliver a unified view of cyberexposure from web applications to containers to cloud infrastructure, accelerating the adoption of DevOps practices while reducing risk. Cloud computing has afforded organisations enormous speed and agility advantages and has driven the emergence of DevOps practices, which www.intelligentciso.com | Issue 04 Dave Cole, Chief Product Officer, Tenable allow new application features to be deployed on a daily or even hourly basis. Yet for all of their advantages, cloud computing and DevOps introduce new complexities for security teams, including rapid-fire changes to production environments alongside short-lived and even server-less assets that create security blind spots. This leads to reduced visibility into the infrastructure itself and more often than not, to unmanaged cyber-risk. “Widespread cloud adoption is leaving critical blind spots for security teams or forcing them to adopt point tools and later attempt to cobble together a complete picture of their environment,” said Dave Cole, Chief Product Officer, Tenable. Public clouds enable organisations to use infrastructure as code, meaning that the various building blocks they offer, such as storage services, virtual machines, containers and the underlying network itself, can all be modified via calls to the public cloud APIs. Tenable’s new product and ecosystem enhancements deliver a unified view into cyberexposure across traditional IT and heterogeneous cloud platforms and enable security to be built into the entire software development lifecycle, from build to production. “This is far too much work and the antithesis of moving at cloud or DevOps speed. We want to make it fast and incredibly easy for our customers to manage the complete spectrum of modern risk and we believe that means taking new challenges head-on in Tenable.io.” u 57
