Tenable launches security solution to safeguard classified environments

Tenable has come up with a solution that supports the needs of customers operating in highly secure environments, such as those that are classified or otherwise air-gapped. Backed by Tenable Security Center, the solution, Tenable Enclave Security, protects IT assets and modern workloads with risk assessment and contextual insight, so that the organisations can identify exposures before they cause damage.

Federal agencies face unique security and compliance regulations when deploying cloud solutions, and Tenable Enclave Security is key to supporting public sector customers, as well as commercial organisations with strict data residency, security or privacy requirements.

Built to support the strictest security requirements, including FedRAMP High and Impact Level 5, Tenable Enclave Security empowers agencies to know, expose and close IT and container exposures from a single, highly secure platform. This consolidated approach also eliminates tool sprawl, reduces costs and boosts efficiency for public sector organisations.

Robert Huber, chief security officer and president, Tenable Public Sector, Tenable, said, “As a leader in vulnerability management and cloud security and a long-time partner of governments all around the world, we’re perfectly positioned to tap into our expertise and deliver mission critical capabilities to assist government agencies as they transform their IT strategy and safely embrace modern workloads to speed innovation.”

“With Tenable Enclave Security, agencies are now be able to gain a fuller understanding of their exposure and risk with the ability to continuously discover, assess and prioritise vulnerabilities across IT assets and container images, all from a single, highly secure framework,” he added.

Tenable Enclave Security will immediately enable organisations to:

·   Meet cloud security and data residency restrictions: Tenable Enclave Security enables customers to meet stringent cloud security and data residency requirements, such as FedRAMP High or Impact Level 5. It can meet customers’ needs wherever they reside, with the ability to be deployed on-prem, in a virtual private cloud or commercial cloud.

· Secure containers before they hit production: As agencies modernise their infrastructure, containers create a more efficient manner to create applications and modernise existing ones. Tenable Enclave Security empowers organisations to quickly assess the risk in their container images, expose their vulnerabilities and understand the breadth of impact.

·  Centralise security tools: Unlike siloed solutions with fragmented visibility, Tenable Enclave Security provides protection for IT assets and modern workloads from a single deployment architecture.
