What is Tenable Cloud Security?

Tenable Cloud Security is an actionable cloud security platform that exposes and closes priority security gaps caused by misconfigurations, risky entitlements and vulnerabilities. Organizations use its intuitive UI to unify siloed tools to secure the full cloud stack, achieving end-to-end visibility, prioritization and remediation across infrastructure, workloads, identities, data and AI services. Users can access the extensive knowledgebase of Tenable Research, reducing the risk of breaches with advanced prioritization that understands resource, identity and risk relationships. Tenable uses this context to pinpoint toxic combinations of risk most likely to be exploited. Take action, even if you only have 5 minutes, with guided remediations and code snippets that significantly reduce MTTR. With one click, report on compliance with industry benchmarks and regulatory requirements, e.g. SOC 2, GDPR & HIPAA. TCS is part of Tenable’s AI-powered exposure management platform, Tenable One.

The relationship with Tenable has been great. For the most part, they've been responsive and have asked for our feedback on the product. When we need support, they're only a contact away from receiving help. The technical reps are able to answer almost any of our questions and when they're not, they reach out to their developers or other skilled engineers about the product for help. They've taken our feedback and have implemented changes to their products that we would like to see implemented in a fairly timely fashion. We're utilizing multiple modules of their product and have received good feedback from our other teams on utilizing the product. I feel that there are a few areas that they still can improve in terms of functionality however, I haven't really seen many other products in the market accomplish what I've seen from Tenable.

Performance of Tenable Cloud Security Across Market Features

Tenable Cloud Security Likes & Dislikes

The user experience is very intuitive in parts, and their help has a lot of help if you're attempting to accomplish something in a normal path of behavior in the application. However, if you need something more advance, their team is available for assistance in attempting to accomplish it. The product is fairly quick in its response and generally doesn't suffer from any performance issues so far.

the products output is highly customisable and able to fit our needs

Flexibility of the product - we can connect from the top 3 major public clouds, integrate with various systems, and get data fairly quickly and easily Ease of use - the product is easy to setup with instructions and documentation. Breath of product - We can use Tenable Cloud Security for our posture, vulnerabilities, toxic combinations, risks, and even compliance frameworks

Customization. The Tenable Cloud Security works as is. Besides adding on integrations, there isn't many customizations past using filters within the product.

overpromised and under delivered on some features

Documentation - While it does exist, it does leave some items to be desired, especially around API usage Licensing - I understand how their model works generally speaking, however planning for the correct model can be difficult and time consuming Customization - There are some items I wish I had more customization on, such as what the reports look like, how we can customize columns and what we can see, and what we can pull from the API

Tenable Platform Enhances Cloud Security with Deep Visibility and Seamless Integrations

Oct 13, 2025

Our overall experience with Tenable has been excellent. Their CNAPP and Cloud Security solutions provide deep visibility across our cloud infrastructure environments and integrate smoothly into our existing workflows. The platform's insights and automation have significantly improved how we manage vulnerabilities and compliance. Additionally, Tenable's sales and account management teams have been outstanding: responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in our success.

Data Integration and Targeted Remediation Enhance Cloud Asset Visibility and Security

Tenable Cloud Security is extremely easy to setup and use. The UI is intuitive, and you don't have to try to find where things are as the layout is logical and professional. The implementation was a few clicks away and it natively authenticated to our existing Tenable One platform. We are also able to pull in data from the cloud portion into exposure management which makes it easy to see all our assets in one view. I really like the "If you only have 5 mins" ad the "Toxic combinations" It makes remediation efforts more focused.
