FAQ

What is Tenable Enclave Security?

Tenable Enclave Security empowers you to know, expose and close IT and container weaknesses across your modern infrastructure. Built for highly secure environments, you get industry leading vulnerability management and modern workload protection to help continuously discover and analyze IT and container assets to understand vulnerability exposures and prioritize high risk vulnerabilities for remediation.

Tenable Enclave Security supports your organization with strict cloud security and data residency restrictions, including FedRAMP High, Impact Level 5 and air-gapped environments.

Why did Tenable create Tenable Enclave Security?

Highly skilled adversaries and nation-state attackers frequently target government and intelligence agencies, financial institutions and other highly secure organizations due to the sensitive data they possess — from intellectual property to classified information pertaining to national security. To gain access to these environments, threat actors frequently exploit modern attack vectors, such as containers and web applications, to gain an initial foothold. It is difficult to obtain the necessary tools to protect modern attack vectors for highly secure environments such as public sector agencies and regulated enterprises that must adhere to strict data residency and cloud security requirements.

Tenable Enclave Security provides modern workload protection for organizations with high security regulations and requirements, such as those operating in classified or air-gapped environments, as well as customers in regions with strict data residency laws. You can deploy Tenable Enclave Security on-prem, in a virtual private cloud, air-gapped or commercial environment, to meet your unique needs and ensure modern workload protection across environments.

What are Tenable Enclave Security’s key capabilities?

• Purpose-built for secure environments: Tenable Enclave Security supports the most stringent security requirements, including air-gapped, FedRAMP High and Impact Level 5.
• Industry-leading vulnerability management: Backed by Tenable Security Center, the world’s #1 vulnerability management solution, Tenable Enclave Security will continuously monitor your infrastructure to discover, inventory and assess known and unknown assets and vulnerabilities in your environment.
